Urban Parking Occupancy Guidance

by Emitel

Occupancy sensors report open municipal parking spaces over a LoRaWAN network to roadside signs and mobile apps, steering drivers to free spots and easing search traffic.

The challenge

What operators are up against

Operators responsible for on-street and municipal parking spaces, occupancy sensors, parking areas, guidance signs, mobile applications, drivers, traffic flow, and city operators cannot continuously inspect every operating condition or developing fault. Periodic checks leave gaps between readings, while isolated local indicators provide limited history and context. A late response can cause downtime, safety exposure, equipment damage, or incomplete compliance evidence. Teams need timely measurements, clear exceptions, and a defined operating response.

The solution

How Urban Parking Occupancy Guidance addresses it

Urban Parking Occupancy Guidance combines connected field data with application software. Parking sensors detect whether configured spaces are occupied and send current availability records to the municipal application. The system organizes live occupancy by parking area and presents available-space information through connected roadside signs or mobile applications. Drivers travel directly to available parking while city teams review occupancy, improve parking operations, and reduce traffic caused by space searches.

How it works

Teams configure the monitored assets, users, and operating rules. Parking sensors detect whether configured spaces are occupied and send current availability records to the municipal application. Installed field devices transmit readings through Emitel’s low-power wide-area LoRaWAN network to the collection, analysis, and visualization application. The system organizes live occupancy by parking area and presents available-space information through connected roadside signs or mobile applications. Drivers travel directly to available parking while city teams review occupancy, improve parking operations, and reduce traffic caused by space searches.
