Imagine it: a rich source of real-time data about your parking capacity utilization. Spark Parking makes this a reality in a highly flexible and more robust way.
Parking surveys may not be the most exciting task undertaken by a municipality, university, or business owner. However, surveys can provide an important metric for benchmarking the current parking state and assessing the impact of land and facility use decisions on parking.
In the past, these surveys have involved a highly manual process, with a labor force deployed to literally count occupied parking spaces during certain time intervals. Spark Parking now makes it possible to automate the process, using our wireless monitoring solution. The result is a complete data collection service which provides the most robust source of information about your parking.
The benefits of our service are:
- No coverage break: Manual surveying can miss the vehicles that park for short periods of time. Our service provides 24/7 real-time monitoring of parking occupancy during the survey timeframe.
- Highly accurate information: Our service removes the human error from surveying. This ensures that accurate length of stay and utilization data is collected for every vehicle in the survey sample.
- Complete flexibility: Want to track every parking space? Want to move the survey to another neighborhood? Want to extend the survey by a few weeks? No problem. Our service is completely modular, designed to meet the varying needs of our customers.
