Parking has been a painful problem for urban drivers. The parking pain exacerbates as more people tend to live in cities in the context of global urbanization. Thus, it is demanding to find a solution to mitigate d rivers' parking headaches. Many solutions tried to resolve the parking issue by predicting parking occupancy. Their focuses were on the accuracy of the theoretical side but lacked a standardized model to evaluate these proposals in practice. This paper develops a Driver Side and Traffic Based Evaluation Model (DSTBM), which provides a general evaluation scheme for different parking solutions. Two common parking detection methods, fixed sensing and mobile sensing are analyzed using DSTBM. The results indicate first, DSTBM examines different solutions from the driver's perspective and has no conflicts with other evaluation schemes; second, DSTBM confirms that fixed sensing performs better than mobile sensing in terms of prediction accuracy.
