Low detail parking allows a quick estimation of parking capacity on a site.
Calculating stalls
The number of stalls will be calculated as the gross parking area divided by the stall average area.
In this case, we divide 152,480/365 = ~417.75. Since we only count whole stalls, we round to 417.
Compared to surface parking which has drive aisles, parking islands, and buffers.
