1. A system comprising:
- a processor configured to;
receive parking space environmental characteristics, from a vehicle parked in a parking space;
download weather data for an area in which the parking space is located, covering a time duration for which the vehicle was parked;
correlate the weather data to the received environmental characteristics to build a parking space environment profile for the duration of time; and
update a parking space model based on the environment profile.

Abstract
A system includes a processor configured to receive parking space environmental characteristics, from a vehicle parked in a parking space. The processor is also configured to download weather data for an area in which the parking space is located, covering a time duration for which the vehicle was parked. The processor is further configured to correlate the weather data to the received environmental characteristics to build a parking space environment profile for the duration of time and update a parking space model based on the environment profile.

8. A system comprising:
-
a processor configured to; determine that a vehicle is proximate to a parking location; retrieve an environmental model for the parking location; retrieve weather data for the parking location; build a forecast model for the parking location covering an estimated parking duration; determine a first parking space having better battery life preservation likelihood than another parking space, within the parking location, based on the forecast model; and recommend the first parking space. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A system comprising:
-
a processor configured to; receive an estimated parking duration for a parked vehicle; receive an forecast model for a parking space in which the vehicle is parked; determine a surplus amount of battery energy; determine a cooling strategy for a vehicle battery, based on the surplus energy and the forecast model; and implement the cooling strategy at least while the vehicle remains parked. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
