Reykjavík has four colour-coded paid-parking zones plus a handful of city parking houses, each with its own hourly rate, paid window, and quirks — P1 caps at three hours, P3 drops to 70 kr/h after the first two paid hours, P4 is free on weekends. Working out which is cheapest for any given trip means juggling all of that in your head while you're already late.
Where to Park does the math for you. Type a destination, pick when you're arriving and how long you'll stay, and the app shows every paid zone within walking distance ranked from cheapest to most expensive — with the actual króna amount you'll pay for that specific arrival time and duration, not just an hourly rate.
The map and zone polygons come straight from Reykjavíkurborg's open data ArcGIS feed. Tariffs are encoded directly from the city's published rate schedule. There is no backend, no account, and no analytics — it's a static page, geocoded through OpenStreetMap's Nominatim, with one ~92 KB GeoJSON snapshot of the city's zones bundled in.
Built mobile-first because that's where you actually need it: you've already arrived, you need an answer in three taps, the map is your phone screen. Dark mode included. The whole thing is MIT-licensed; the source is up on GitHub.
