Innovations driving smart parking market
The need for smart parking solutions is driven by the increasing traffic congestion as well as the increasing pollution from automobiles. Parking issues contributes to 30% of traffic congestion due to the unavailability of parking space. The problem is aggravated with the rapid growth in the number of vehicles globally which in turn leads to scarcity of parking space. In an effort to use as few resources as possible, smart parking uses strategies that combines technology and human innovation to achieve faster, easier, and efficient parking of vehicles. Smart parking systems allows operator to count vehicles and share the status of availability of parking in real-time. Historical and real-time parking data has enabled wireless smart parking sensors to locate availability of parking spaces reducing fuel cost as well as time-consumed while searching for parking space. Vehicle check-in and check-out times can be tracked using Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) technology.
