How self-driving cars can figure out parking:
Robocars are very close to being able to drive the roads at a safety level to match humans. But what about dropping you off, picking you up, and parking or waiting?
Drop-off points and parking spots are very commonly on private land, though. How will cars know where to go if you are heading to a private destination? The cars don't use the aerial imagery to navigate -- this is just to get the rough shape. A visit by a robocar with the right sensors is needed. That gets easier and easier as more robocars are available. Such cars can have a remote human supervisor when they enter the unknown space to map it. The supervisor almost never"drives" it like a human with a wheel, rather they give strategic commands, like pointing to a spot on an image and saying to drive to that spot.
My expectation is that robocar companies will offer private lot owners the ability to choose from various systems to manage how cars come to their land. These systems will go beyond what even humans understand today. They will be allowed to designate waiting areas, something like the taxi stands of old, and instructions on how to get in and out and in what order.
For cases as extreme as emptying a stadium, at first they might allow only buses to come, and those buses might move to other, more distant lots where private cars can go to receive passengers who came on the shuttle. Even things as simple as grocery store lots will have management if they wish it, to control how cars go to parking spots, how delivery vehicles arrive, and how cars move to pick up customers at the door. As the number of people using robocars rises, the pick-up areas will increase in size to handle it, but that's easy because the need for parking drops.
