Situation
The town of Hranice, Czech Republic, was reconstructing two parking lots near local traffic hubs – train station and bus station. At the same time, it was looking for an accurate and complex parking monitoring system to get more insights about the reconstructed parking lots. To do this, they asked our partner – Cross Zlín, that decided to install a modern ParkingDetection solution by DataFromSky.

Our approach
Our experts decided to monitor the parking lots in their entirety to provide accurate and reliable information to the customer. Therefore, 3 new poles as well as 6 IP cameras were installed near the stations to cover all 153 parking spots. Furthermore, 3 processing units were added to analyze the received video data.
To provide maximum insight, the system analyzes each and every parking spot, detecting vehicles’ parking times. Interestingly, there are several reserved parking spots with parking time limited to 15 minutes – and ParkingDetection monitors them as a separate group and checks if this limit wasn’t exceeded.

Results
Thanks to ParkingDetection’s unique capabilities, the client receives detailed real-time information about each parking lot’s occupancy, parked vehicle types and parking turnover – an important parameter for lots near the stations. The system was also connected to a smart city platform INVIPO per client’s request.
