Parking is currently considered a major problem. With the increasing number of vehicles on the road, it is necessary to make more use of modern technologies that can address the situation efficiently and respond in real time. One example of future use is the implementation of an intelligent parking management system in urban parking zones. This solution belongs to the category of services for “Smart City” projects and thus belongs to other systems for improving the quality of human lives. It will not only helps drivers, but will also significantly reduce the environmental burden ”.
Applied system functions
SPEL has successfully completed the testing of a unique parking space occupancy management system with intelligent computer vision. The solution is based on the CertiConVis system. The system is able to record and evaluate in real time the free parking space and the movement of vehicles within the monitored area by means of an analysis from the camera record. The system has so far been tested on two major busy parking lots.
The first implementation took place in a parking lot for trucks in Dobšice on the D11 motorway, where the occupancy of nine parking places for trucks and lorries was evaluated by means of a camera system. The system achieved a 98% success rate here, both in evaluating occupancy rates and recognizing the size of a parked vehicle.
Another location was SPEL’s own parking area of approximately 200 m2 and 90 parking spaces. Even with a high frequency of vehicle movement on the parking area, the system works at nearly 100% here.
