189 Siemens Industry has announced an agreement with 579 Streetline, a leading provider of sensor-based smart parking solutions in the United States, to jointly market a range of smart parking products and services for municipalities, airports, universities and private parking operators.

This new agreement will combine Siemens signage and advanced traffic management systems with Streetline’s patented ultra-low power wireless networks and sensors to provide customers with better insight into parking operations and give drivers real-time guidance to open parking spaces.

According to the agreement, Streetline’s parking sensors will be integrated with Siemens parking solutions and products to enable extended control, management and response capabilities for ITS applications. The agreement allows Siemens to resell Streetline’s parking sensor products and applications for on-street, off-street or garage use. In return, Streetline will be able to use Siemens parking guidance solutions and Siemens Industry, Republic ITS services.

The two companies also have plans to develop and market a new offering that connects parking availability information from Streetline’s sensors and smartphone application with Siemens parking management systems, creating a full spectrum of useful data available to both drivers and transportation planners.

“The products offered by Streetline complement Siemens’ own portfolio of intelligent traffic solutions,” said Oliver Hauck, president of the Mobility Division of Siemens Industry. “That fact, coupled with Streetline’s proven ability to optimise customer operations, means customers will benefit from this partnership through lower costs and more efficient management of parking resources — all while reducing the negative environmental impact associated with traffic and parking.”
