New Zealand-based 4372 Frogparking is showing a new, GPS-enabled electronic parking permit that gives parking companies more visibility of their customers’ movements.

The permit can be scanned by parking wardens to check its validity, while a built-in accelerometer allows the parking company to know exactly when a driver has parked or moved off, enabling precise billing of the time used. The company can also choose different properties for each permit and change those remotely.

The permits also allow barriers to be opened automatically.
