Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description

Let an agent explain kinds of parking area and their design, support finding and using parking, describe parking policy and regulation, and describe vehicle depots for transit and rail.

A facility or area where vehicles are stored when not in use, including surface car parks, multi-storey parking garages, automated parking systems, on-street parking, and depots where buses, trolleybuses and trains are parked and maintained, such as train maintenance depots and railway workshops; parking areas are planned, priced and regulated under transport and land use policy and designed for safety, access and increasingly for electric charging.

What it is for: Places to store vehicles.

It can be explain kinds and design; support finding and using parking; describe policy and regulation; describe depots.

Distinguishing features

Vehicle storage

Design standards

Pricing and policy

Depots for fleets

What it looks like

Marked surface lots, garages, or depots with tracks.

How it is recognised

Vehicle storage facility

Car parks, garages, depots

A garage at home is private; a road is for movement
