Polish smart cities IT solutions provider has chosen 3838 Nedap’s Sensit wireless parking to improve on-street parking in the Polish city of Piekary Śląskie.

The new Parkanizer platform from BT Skyrise collects and shares data for parking guidance and reporting purposes and is integrated with Sensit, which monitors the real-time usage of on-street parking spaces using parking bay mounted sensors.

Sensit consists of bay-mounted parking sensors using combined magnetic and infrared detection technology to ensure accurate vehicle detection. Real time parking occupancy status information is transmitted via the wireless network to the central hosted cloud-based server, which transmits it to the Parkanizer platform.

Parkanizer displays the availability and pricing of parking spaces to drivers via a smartphone app, using dynamic markers on a map, including the number of available parking spaces in geo-location context. Parking spaces reserved for people with disabilities are marked separately. Motorists receive real time updates on vacant parking spaces. When parked, the app can be used to pay on-line.

Parkanizer Analytics enables parking operators to manage, monitor and control the real-time usage of parking spaces.

    The UK Highways Agency is trialling a system to add commercially available traffic data to its existing sources to monitor how well traffic is flowing on England's motorways and strategic roads. Similar data sources are already used by satellite navigation devices, smartphones, and applications like Google maps. Better real-time data will allow agency staff to respond more quickly to incidents and identify delays and communicate them to drivers so they can take alternative routes if necessary.
