VIDEO-BASED SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATED DETECTION OF DOUBLE PARKING VIOLATIONS
First Claim
1. A method for detecting a double-parked vehicle, the method comprising:
- identifying a parking region in video data received from an image capture device monitoring the parking region;
defining an enforcement region at least partially surrounding the parking region;
detecting a stationary candidate double-parked vehicle in the enforcement region;
determining the occurrence of an event relative to the stationary candidate double-parked vehicle;
in response to the determined occurrence of the event, classifying the stationary candidate double-parked vehicle as being one of double parked and not double parked.

Abstract
A method for detecting a double-parked vehicle includes identifying a parking region in video data received from an image capture device monitoring the parking region. The method includes defining an enforcement region at least partially surrounding the parking region. The method includes detecting a stationary vehicle in the enforcement region. The method includes determining the occurrence of an event relative to the stationary vehicle. In response to the determined occurrence of the event, the method includes classifying the stationary vehicle as being one of double parked and not double parked.

14. A system for detecting a double-parked vehicle, the system comprising:
a double parking confirmation device including a memory for storing modules, including; a region determination module operative to identify a parking region and an enforcement region at least partially surrounding the parking region in a sequence of frames received from an image capture device monitoring the parking region; a vehicle detection module operative to detect a stationary candidate double-parked vehicle in the enforcement region; a vehicle classification module operative to; determine an occurrence of an event relative to the stationary candidate double-parked vehicle, and in response to the determined occurrence of the event, classify the stationary candidate double-parked vehicle as being one of double parked and not double parked; and
,a processor in communication with the memory and being operative to execute the modules. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 21, 24, 25, 26)
