All the drivers go through the issue related to parking space daily. Smart parking solutions can enable owners to make better use of parking spaces available.
FREMONT, CA: All the public places including corporate campus, malls, universities, airport etc have parking spaces, and with increasing number of vehicles it has become more important to manage parking facilities in a proper way. With the help of real-time data, smart parking solutions can provide accuracy, and will also help in navigating the drivers without wasting their time and fuel.
Here are five reasons why parking availability is a must-have:
• Decrease operating costs and accelerate efficiency by 20 percent
The profitability of the business is directly affected by operating expenses. Parking lot and garage management is a high operating cost for most of the companies. In order to increase operating efficiency by 20 percent, businesses can adopt a smart parking solution. A key to smart parking is parking guidance technology. The technology uses infrared sensors and Bluetooth technology that are 99.9 percent accurate to monitor parking areas, identify open spaces, and lead drivers to them.
