Systems, methods, and media for vehicle tracking in parking areas

Exemplary embodiments include systems and methods for pairing a user to an available parking space, the system comprising: a positional device; at least one sensory input device positioned on an infrastructure point located proximally to at least one parking space; and a central server platform comprising a server having a processor and a memory unit communicatively coupled with the processor, the memory unit storing instructions which, when executed, perform a method. The method comprises: receiving a first signal from the positional device, the first signals indicating an intention of a user to seek parking and further indicating a location of the user; receiving a second signal from the at least one sensory input device, the second signal indicating availability of a parking space; determining, from the second signal, which of the parking spaces are available to the user; and pairing the user with a parking space.
