ReportsnReports.com’s latest research report, Global Smart Parking Market 2015-2019 says increased use of data analytics to optimise parking is one of the key trends being witnessed in this market across the globe.

The research discusses trends, forecasts and growth prospects segmented by geography along with information on leading players of the worldwide industry. Data analytics software is predominantly used these days to provide better parking facilities to consumers. Data analytics provide an appropriate solution for parking-related issues and also changes the driver's behaviour. Moreover, analytics providers forge partnerships with smart parking solution providers to provide better insights into parking spaces.

According to the report, one of the main drivers is the increased installation of smart parking meters. In most parking lots in the US, simple parking meters are being replaced with smart parking meters. Smart meters are more reliable than the older meters. In the case of any maintenance issues, smart meters wirelessly alert parking providers to address the problem. Further, the smart parking market report states that one of the major challenges in this industry is the lowered accuracy of sensors. Sensors installed in parking spaces are affected by electromagnetic interference from overhead trolley lines that reduce the accuracy of vehicle detection sensing to 90 per cent. The malfunctioning of these sensors also leads to inadequacy in automatically issuing parking tickets.

This research helps answer key questions on the smart parking market, such as the size of the market in 2019, its growth rate, key market trends, market drivers, the challenges to market growth, key vendors, market opportunities and threats faced and the strengths and weaknesses of the key vendors.
