1. A method comprising:
receiving parking information from one or more in-parking navigation systems of one or more vehicles, one or more mobile devices associated with the one or more vehicles, or a combination thereof traveling in a parking facility with no or a positioning satellite coverage below a threshold, wherein the parking information indicates at least one parking spot location occupied by the one or more vehicles, wherein the in-parking navigation systems determine the at least one parking spot location based on tracking one or more multi-modal trajectories of the one or more mobile devices, wherein the one or more multi-modal trajectories comprise one or more vehicle trajectory segments traveling within the parking facility and one or more pedestrian trajectory segments traveling to or from one or more pedestrian entry or exit points of the parking facility, and wherein the at least one parking spot location is measured from a last junction detected in the one or more multi-modal trajectories;
determining an occupancy level of the parking facility based on the parking information; and
providing the occupancy level of the parking facility as an output.
