UML class diagram showing ParkingSpot parent class inherited by EVSpot and CompactSpot, with Ticket and Vehicle associations.

What it shows

  • Inherit spot types from a base class to isolate specialized pricing logic.
  • Decouple vehicle dimensions from spot allocation using spot constraints.
  • Tickets aggregate spots and vehicles to calculate duration fees cleanly.

The takeaway

Polymorphic spots isolate rate calculations without polluting core parking space logic.
