EXTRA FEATURES: WHY IS IT IMPORTANT FOR YOU?

One of the main reasons Parksol is growing so rapidly and manages to create long-term partnerships with clients worldwide is the exceptional focus of its products, their quality, and clients’ needs.
That’s why years ago, Parksol decided to find Every Solution their clients need or think that is needed to be in the marketplace.
Parksol offers some of the largest solution regimens on the market, so no matter what car parking, management, guidance, counting, Software, or APP solution you need, we have got your back.
In fact, if you don’t have a solution that is ready for a market or doesn’t even exist, we will create one personally for you on-demand. 

Here are some ADD-ONS we offer that are already on the market and proven to be effective to most businesses where car parking is needed. 

Find Your Car terminal

  • an information floor-standing kiosk designed to help people find their cars in a parking lot.
  • The terminal provides customers with quick and intuitive user interaction by just entering their car license number, and results are immediately shown with the place where their car is located in the parking lot on the map.
  • The terminal is equipped with a modern touchscreen monitor that is simple to use even for old and young generations. (Industrial stainless steel metal keyboard with trackball is also available if needed).
  • “Find Your Car” Terminal can be delivered in 2 different versions: For Indoor or Outdoor use. (in other words, it fits any type of parking lot, no matter what conditions are surrounding it.) 

How it Works

Because this terminal is a part of the Indoor parking guidance system, every single step of it is designed to achieve the best possible customer experience using this system. 
From the moment the vehicle enters the parking lot when the license plate is recognized, all the way until you find a vacant parking stop, the indoor parking guidance system is tracking your journey, so once you leave your car, we know exactly where it is and will provide you such information through our modern Find Your Car terminal solution. 
It’s especially important if you want to get to your car faster and don’t waste time checking every single line is trying to save the exact location on your phone.

Biggest Benefits

  • Quick and intuitive user interaction– users can easily navigate and search their car’s parking location by entering their car License plate number. (extremely time-efficient) 
  • Search results are shown as real-time pictures taken by parking cameras. After selecting the client’s car, its and terminal’s location is shown on the parking map. 
  • The terminal is equipped with a modern touchscreen monitor that is simple to use even for old and young generations.  
  • You can use the map to see what is the fastest way to get to your car without spending much time walking around the parking lot. 
  • Monitoring software collects the necessary data from the moment you enter the parking lot, all the way until you reach your desired vacant parking place.
  • An option to have an industrial stainless steel metal keyboard with a trackball may better fit some organizations where the client base is more used to this kind of technology. 

Wrong parking detection

  • is video analytic based AI deep learning wrong parking detection algorithm that detects incorrectly parked cars in closed parking lot.
  • Information with bad parked car’s LPR with parking lot number can be sent to parking lot management stuff via our software for further decision making.
  • Additionally, system can send emails with all information including picture of wrong parked car.
  • If needed information can be sent to third party software via REST, JSON messages or etc.

What is it

 

Wrong parking solution uses video stream from our parking guidance system cameras to detect not only free/occupied spaces, read LPR, but also detect incorrectly parked cars. This solution is purely software based and doesn’t need any additional hardware. Also, it can be implemented in our existing video parking guidance systems. All you need to do is to implement new option to our PBOX and update server software.

Biggest Benefits

  • This can be used as upgrade of the existing system
  • AI software-based solution. No additional hardware needed
  • This information is very important for dedicated parking spaces like for disables, family with children, electro chargers where incorrectly parked car can be quite a big problem.
  • Information about bad parked cars with license plate number, parking lot number, time and etc. will reach parking lot management stuff in real time via our software. It can send email, SMS, REST, JSON messages or etc. to dedicated stuff or third-party software.
  • Possibility of visual confirmation of bad parking via our software using video stream of specific camera.

Monitoring Software

Parksol monitoring software ensures the most efficient usage and management of the parking lot. It allows to control parking load and reduces traffic jams. The software instantly transmits information of available parking spaces to LED displays.

  • Real-time parking occupancy data and statistics
  • Control of parking places (reservations for employees, VIP clients, timing)
  • Information about a vehicle parked in not allowed areas (parking violations)
  • More revenue opportunities – payment (dynamic pricing, barrier-less parking), valet parking, etc. (only with Outdoor Parking Guidance System with Video Analytics)
  • More advanced analytics of the customer: repeated customers, time spent in parking, etc. (only with Outdoor Parking Guidance System with Video Analytics)
  • Video Surveillance, License Plate Recognition and Find Your Car (only with Outdoor Parking Guidance System with Video Analytics)
  • Increase overall security (only with Outdoor Parking Guidance System with Video Analytics)
  • Possibility to integrate parking space reservation APP (only with Outdoor Parking Guidance System with Video Analytics)
  • API for integration with third-party systems
  • “Scenarios” module – programmed with semi-programming language by drawing logic schemes. The module is taking process events from ParkSol software using logic elements and activating various events.

Scenario Module

Scenario Module is a complete system that creates individual solutions based on logic and simple programming, no matter what parking or management scenario you want to address.
The system is especially valuable if you want to track cars that are parked for too long, have parking lot guess who are not welcome(through license plate recognition), want to track fulfillment percentage, and much more… Actions can be starting from Simple Relay Output, Email message, or even specific TCP telnet command. 

How it Works

Scenario Module system uses powerful but simple “Schedule”, “If”, “And”, “Or” programmed logic to create macro situations when the system has to do programmed actions. 
Its main actions include closing-opening parking gates, parking lighting control, audio system activation, email information, online message, and many other car parking solutions you can think about. Please read more about them below. 

Biggest Benefits

  • Let’s say you have certain customers that are not welcome to your parking lot? “Scenario Module” allows you to simply program certain license plates which will not be able to enter the parking lot at any time. 
  • Want to track cars that are parked for too long? The scenario Module is the solution that can help you. 
  • Want to see the parking lot fulfillment percentage in real-time? We have a solution for that as well. 

And these are just a few of many examples of how the “Scenario Module” solution can be used. Literally, any desired scenario can be programmed in minutes. These are just a few of the following actions that can be taken after a particular scenario was completed: 

  • Close/open parking gates when parking area or zone is full/free; 
  • Parking lighting control by real-time activity in the parking lot (according to day time or darkness outside the parking lot) 
  • Activation of parking lot audio system for advertising (this solution can also be programmed, let’s say to play only once a new car is entering the parking lot) 
  • Online email information of too long parked vehicles and other incidents (this is a very helpful solution to keep your parking lot effective and create an excellent experience for your most important customers) 
  • Online email message if an Arrived client from “Unwanted” client group; 
  • Close parking for cars during Fire or Evacuation process; 
  • Open the parking for all cars for immediate Evaluation when needed 
  • So much more! 

API REST

“API(REST)” is an additional Parksol software module with the main purpose of connecting all the different systems and 3rd party integrations into one, managing them effectively, and avoiding headaches of confusion that different kinds of systems cause. 

How it Works

Technically API (Application Programming Interface) is based on Web Services – REST (Representational State Transfer). Using the Rest interface, you can GET or PUT information to the Parksol parking system software. 

Biggest Benefits

  • Get Live Occupancy data from individual parking spaces or parking spaces groups (which mean more efficient parking space control and higher revenues) 
  • Lower management expenses because you won’t need extra team members who will be managing different systems inside the company 
  • Reserve/close/open parking spaces or groups (no more wasted time in overcrowded parking areas) 
  • Create/edit parking space groups (effective parking management for different types of clients) 
  • Read display values and states  
  • 100% free lifetime software updates(whenever we make a new software update, you’ll receive it 100% free of charge!) 
  • Create/Edit/Depersonalize Clients with their data (especially important) 
  • Create/Edit Client Types and Groups 

Parksol guidance systems can be integrated with systems like: 

  • BMS (Building Management System).
  • PMS (Parking Management (payment) Systems).
  • Parking places reservation systems.
  • Security and CCTV systems.
  • Mobile Apps, CRM’s. 
  • Hotel Management Systems, and any other control systems. 

Can you imagine having a system that is easier to manage than all of them you have right now? A proven method that can make every active part of your parking lot work together? 

Parksol can offer this solution through API(REST) simple-to-manage software.
Keep in mind that this is an additional feature that’s is not a MUST in all parking lots, especially if you have only 1 integrated system. But, it’s very effective, saves a lot of management time, and is proven to contribute to great customer experience creation.
