The rapid development of the social economy strongly promotes the urbanization and motorization. Meanwhile, parking problems become serious due to the long-term imbalance between parking demands and facility constructions. Thus there is an increasing urgency in finding solutions for parking problems. Based on the methodology framework of geographic information system (GIS), the metropolis parking problems are discussed in this paper. The characteristics of parking demand and the reasons for parking problems are investigated in detail. Then, the basic parking principle and strategies for solving parking problems are suggested with the example of Beijing. The results are hoped to improve the parking environment in metropolis.
