The computers used in this application were connected
over the internet. A database titled as RFIDDATA was used
to store data coming from the parking-lots in the city. In the
database, as the main table, "Vehiclelnformation" and as a
sub table "VehicleCirculationlnfo" tables were created. The
general information about a vehicle is stored on the main
table and its circulation information is kept on the sub table.
The main table consists of the fields such as vehiclelD,
platenumber, type, and model. To monitor a vehicle's inner
city parking-lot movements, its check-in and check-out
attempts, the dates, the time, the parking-lot information and
total parking fee, "VehicleCirculationlnfo" table was used.
These two tables were prepared by a database management
system and administered via the software developed. RFID
reader was connected to the computer's USB port by the USB
cable to provide communication between the developed
software and RFID reader. Another USB connection was
established for the barrier as well. For each of the parkinglots,
one barrier and one RFID reader were utilized.
