The article describes the methodology for constructing a regression model of occupancy of paid parking zones taking into account the uneven distribution of sessions during the day and the behavioral characteristics of two groups of clients - the regression model consists of two equations that take into account the characteristics of each group. In addition, the process of creating a data model, collecting, processing and analyzing data, distribution of occupancy during the day is described. Also, the methodology for modeling a phenomenon whose distribution has the shape of a bell and depends on the time of day is given. The results can be used by commercial enterprises managing parking lots and city administrations, researchers when modeling similar indicators that demonstrate a normal distribution characteristic of many natural processes (customer flow in bank branches, replenishment and / or withdrawal of funds during the life of replenished deposits, etc.).
