Abstract: Parking area is a complex system consisting of adequate system components and of their inter-dependence; it is therefore necessary prior to analysing and planning of parking capacities to define the model of parking. The main goal of this paper is analyze the role and prove the applicability of information technologies in the function of design optimal parking area capacity. The working hypothesis is set: Applying the information technologies in optimization of parking area capacity the optimal number of servers (ramps) and the required capacity (number of parking spaces) in closed parking areas can be defined. Scientific methods applied in confirming this hypothesis are based on waiting-line models and information modelling method. The use of information technologies in optimization parking area capacity will be presented on an example of the “Delta” parking area in the City of Rijeka. A particular merit of the model is its universal applicability because the presented methodology can be applied to any other closed parking area, i.e. parking area with ramps in current or future, changed conditions.
