wherein said legal parking related data in said database is categorized into data types comprising commercial vehicle legal parking related data or non-commercial vehicle legal parking related data, said legal parking related data is being further categorized by type of vehicle or type of vehicle plate;
wherein said database is updated dynamically;
a forum module, in communication with said central server, for receiving said real-time street cleaning data from one or more additional users;
a location identifier in communication with an internal clock mechanism for identifying a present location of said user and a present time and date;
a processing apparatus, in communication with said database, to identify one or more potentially available legal parking locations by precluding one or more unavailable or illegal parking locations from said legal parking related data in said database based on a user type of said user; and
