The rapid urbanization of heritage districts and increasing tourism demands have created unprecedented challenges for managing parking infrastructure, particularly in preserving cultural authenticity while accommodating modern mobility needs. This systematic literature review examines the integration of smart vertical parking systems (SVPS) within urban heritage tourism contexts through a comprehensive thematic narrative synthesis of 65 peer-reviewed publications spanning 2017–2024. Employing systematic search strategies across Scopus, Web of Science, and IEEE Xplore databases, this study synthesizes empirical findings and theoretical frameworks addressing the intersection of intelligent parking technologies, heritage preservation, and sustainable tourism development. The thematic analysis reveals three primary research domains: technological implementation factors encompassing automation systems, capacity optimization, and service integration; heritage contextualization challenges, including preservation–modernization tensions, visual impact mitigation, and regulatory compliance; and tourism sustainability considerations involving stakeholder perspectives, visitor experience enhancement, and economic viability assessments. Results indicate that while smart parking technologies demonstrate significant potential for addressing urban heritage tourism challenges, current research exhibits substantial gaps in empirical validation within heritage-specific contexts, limited interdisciplinary integration between technology and preservation sciences, and insufficient long-term sustainability impact assessments. The synthesis identifies critical research priorities, including heritage-sensitive design methodologies, stakeholder-inclusive implementation frameworks, and comprehensive evaluation metrics for cultural and economic sustainability. These findings contribute to advancing theoretical understanding of technology-heritage integration while providing practical insights for urban planners, heritage managers, and tourism stakeholders navigating the complexities of modernizing historic urban environments.
