The paper presents a Monte Carlo-based method for preliminary image analysis and classification applied to parking space reservation. The proposed approach can be used especially for large parking areas with high density of parking places, where automatic recognition of some geometrical parameters of the entering vehicles can be helpful for optimised usage of the available parking area. After performing real-time classification of the entering vehicles, the shortest path towards the reserved parking place can be presented for the driver e.g. on some display screens. This requires appling a fast classification method which can be easily implemented in embedded systems instead of some typical classification algorithms characterised by relatively high computational complexity. The Monte Carlo approach presented in the paper can be used as an efficient solution of this problem.
