Wireless transmission system to determine parking lot occupancy
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a server, a unique identifier associated with a parking space from a first receiving device, wherein the unique identifier is transmitted by a transmitter device;
generating, by the server, a first instruction to query a type of the unique identifier, wherein the type of the unique identifier is associated with whether the parking space is occupied by the first receiving device;
transmitting, by the server, the first instruction to a database associated with one or more parking spaces;
in response to determining that a parking space is occupied by the first receiving device, generating, by the server, a second instruction to modify a record within the database associated with the parking space as occupied;
generating, by the server, a third instruction to query the first receiving device regarding a number of occupants within an automobile associated with the first receiving device;
upon transmitting the third instruction to the first receiving device, receiving by the server, the number of occupants in the automobile associated with the first receiving device;
receiving, by the server, a query from a second receiving device about the availability of parking spaces;
generating, by the server, a fourth instruction to receive one or more unoccupied parking spaces;
generating, by the server, data for rendering on a graphical user interface comprising a census data, wherein the census data comprises at least one of the occupied parking spaces, unoccupied parking spaces, and number of occupants within the automobile; and
transmitting, by the server, the data for rendering on the graphical user interface to the second receiving device.

Abstract
A wireless transmission system includes a server to receive a unique identifier associated with a parking space from a first receiving device. The server then generate an instruction to query a type of the unique identifier and transmit the instruction to the database. The server in response to determining that a parking space is occupied by the first receiving device, generate an instruction to modify a record within the database associated with the parking space as occupied. The server receive a query from a second receiving device about the availability of parking spaces, and generate an instruction to receive one or more unoccupied parking spaces. The server generates a graphical user interface including a census data where the census data may include the occupied parking spaces, unoccupied parking spaces, and number of occupants within the automobile. The server transmit the graphical user interface to the second receiving device.
