Systems and methods for weather-related vehicle damage prevention

A computer-implemented method for providing covered parking to vehicles, the method implemented using at least one covered parking location (CPL) computing device including at least one processor in communication with at least one vehicle-associated computing device, the method comprising:

• receiving a request message from the at least one vehicle-associated computing device, wherein the request message includes (i) a request to reserve a parking spot within a covered parking location, and (ii) a vehicle user profile associated with at least one vehicle;
• in response to the request being accepted, transmitting a response message to the at least one vehicle-associated computing device including an access code for providing access to the at least one vehicle to the covered parking location;
• communicating with one or more access terminals of the covered parking location, each of the one or more access terminals configured to control one or more barricades of the covered parking location to selectively permit access to the covered parking location;
• and
• in response to receiving a notification message that the at least one vehicle has accessed the covered parking location, monitoring the at least one vehicle by exchanging data signals with a camera system associated with the covered parking location.

At least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, wherein when executed by at least one processor included in at least one covered parking location (CPL) computing device and in communication with at least one vehicle-associated computing device, the computer-executable instructions cause the at least one processor to:

• receive a request message from the at least one vehicle-associated computing device, wherein the request message includes (i) a request to reserve a parking spot within a covered parking location, and (ii) a vehicle user profile associated with at least one vehicle;
• in response to the request being accepted, transmit a response message to the at least one vehicle-associated computing device including an access code for providing access to the at least one vehicle to the covered parking location;
• communicate with one or more access terminals of the covered parking location, each of the one or more access terminals configured to control one or more barricades of the covered parking location to selectively permit access to the covered parking location;
• and
• in response to receiving a notification message that the at least one vehicle has accessed the covered parking location, monitor the at least one vehicle by exchanging data signals with a camera system associated with the covered parking location.
