Abstract
A system for a vehicle comprises a global positioning system (GPS) that selectively generates location and parking indication data when the vehicle is parked. A control module receives a transceiver that selectively wirelessly transmits data of the location and parking indication data from said GPS and transmits the location and parking indication data using a transmitter. A parking monitoring system located remotely from the vehicle receives the location and parking indication data from the vehicle and a plurality of other vehicles that generates parking status reports based on the location and parking indication data and selectively transmits the parking status reports to the vehicle.
