Systems and methods for determining a parking region of vehicles

Abstract

A virtual parking system may include a storage device that stores a set of instructions and a processor in communication with the storage device. When executing the set of instructions, the processor may be configured to cause the system to acquire a first geographical location associated with a virtual parking region and acquire, from a user terminal, a second geographical location via a communication unit of the virtual parking region. The processor may also be configured to cause the system to determine whether a distance between the first geographical location and the second geographical location is less than a threshold distance. The processor may further be configured to cause the system to, in response to a result of the determination that the distance is less than the threshold distance, transmit, via the communication unit, information associated with the virtual parking region to the user terminal.
