Parking is a vital component of today's transportation system and descriptive data are therefore of great importance for urban planning and traffic management. However, data quality is often low: managed parking places may only be partially inventoried, or parking at the curbside and on private ground may be missing. This paper presents a processing chain in which remote sensing data and statistical methods are combined to provide parking area estimates. First, parking spaces and other traffic areas are detected from aerial imagery using a convolutional neural network. Individual image segmentations are fused to increase completeness. Next, a Gamma hurdle model is estimated using the detected parking areas and OpenStreetMap and land use data to predict the parking area adjacent to streets. A systematic relationship is found between the road length and type and the parking area obtained. It is suggested that these results are informative to those needing information on parking in structurally similar regions.
