How to visually showcase a multi-level parking structure on Google Maps without having GPS coordinates

Determining how to illustrate a multilevel parking structure in contrast to an open parking area on the digital map that is superimposed on Google Maps, where each parking space is precisely marked using GPS.

Inaccuracy in GPS locating indoor spots

Constraints: Visually consistent with Google maps

Proposed Solution: Inside a Multilevel Structure

Proposed Solution: Inside a Multilevel Structure

When we began considering multilevel parking structures, we realized we needed to add some new controls. First, upon entering a building structure, users should be able to select which floor they're viewing and switch between floors easily.

The level selector display the alerts happening on different levels in real-time.

Having the levels in a grid format allowed the user to make the decision of which level to enter

The bottom bar adapts when switching between standard and multi-level parking lot views.

Re-Designing Glance bar Stats

SpotGenius, a startup, was originally constructed solely by coders. As the inaugural UX Associate, the task of reworking the UI for improved clarity and to allow for longer numerical values, if necessary, fell to me.

Previous glance bar layout offered minimal context to the stats and seemed to lack foundation with floating icons

Zone and the Types

A zone in any parking lot is defined by drawing a property line and then outlining a specific area designated as a parking area, which we refer to as a Zone. Zones can be of different types:

Zone

Car Counting Zones:

Recently enhanced, these zones track the overall number of vehicles in the area rather than individual spots. This method provides a broader view of parking lot usage. ROI (Region of Interest) Zone, which leverages the camera’s field of view

3.Pickup and Drop-Off Zones:

These zones are specifically designed for areas where vehicles temporarily stop to pick up or drop off passengers.

It was essential for us to alternate between floors of the multi-level structure without the need to return and choose a different floor. The conception of controls for the web resembled that of elevator buttons.

My time at SpotGenius

In total I spent six months working at SpotGenius. I presented my work at board meetings, to developers, design reviews, and in front of our users. I designed new features, helped them grow over time. Working at SpotGenius has made me deeply appreciate how much fun it can be to design and build software with others who love software and value good design.
