First Claim
1. A system for estimating the location of vehicles in parking lots, having:
- reading means configured to read and record first data A associated with the license plate of a vehicle accessing the inside a parking lot; and
detection means configured to record, through a plurality of sensors, second data B indicating a change of availability status, selecting from free and occupied, of the parking lot spaces;
in which the reading means, through a plurality of control points, capture at least the following information corresponding to data A;
location of the control point, license plate number of the vehicle, exact date and time of this capture;
in which the detection means record at least the following information, corresponding to data B;
space number, the availability status of the spaces, exact date and time in which a vehicle has parked in the space;
in which the system comprises;
input means configured to manually enter a license plate number corresponding to a vehicle to be located inside a parking lot, location means configured to locate the vehicle inside the parking lot, output means configured to generate a report;
the reading means, detection means and location means being operatively related (b, c) such that by making use of the previously recorded information through;
the input means, a first receiver configured to receive data A, and a second receiver configured to receive data B;
