PS One is a modular solution specially designed to meet the typical needs of small, medium and large automated parking areas, ideal for enhancing the efficiency of the service while controlling operating costs and traffic safety. In addition to web-based technology, the hallmarks of the new automatic system include reading and recognition of international licence plates, the ability to record HD images of all sides of the vehicle and to read 2D barcodes from prints and mobile devices.

All elements of the parking system - pay stations, entrance and exit stations and displays - are connected to the Ethernet with TCP/IP protocol and managed through a central server that allows connectivity to an unlimited number of applications. Connectivity can be wire, fibre optic or wi-fi, offering numerous advantages for the design of both small and large installations. The SNMP protocol also allows remote interaction with all applications for any requirement, even if only for supervision purposes. The central server hosts both the relational database as well as the car park system management software. The application is completely web-oriented and clients can access it easily through web pages, without having to load software modules locally.

    Car parking and parked cars need not be a technological black hole
    David Crawford mines the potential of joined-up parking. Drivers conventionally see parking as an isolated, often frustrating, action; but collectively their attempts to find a space impact hugely on traffic flows. But new analyses of parking events look set to deliver real benefits to motorists and cities alike. Initiatives getting under way around the world are highlighting the advantages of connecting up parking events and – eventually - parked cars. The hoped-for results include not only enhanced urban

    Automating enforcement of environmental zones
    Amsterdam City Council has chosen to move away from manual enforcement of its environmental zone, which is intended to keep highly polluting goods vehicles out of the city centre, and is installing an automated, ANPR-based system. The signs are not much to look at: white with a red circle and the all-important word Milieuzone ('Environmental zone'). But these signs mean that Amsterdam's city centre is strictly off-limits to polluting goods traffic. At the moment compliance is monitored by special wardens wh
