CW7 LLC, a prominent real estate developer in the Pacific Northwest, has selected EnSight Technologies, a SanDiego-based parking technology organization, to deliver their cutting-edge Vision-Based Parking Occupancy Management System for their latest parking garage development in Vancouver, Washington. Parking is a competitive business. Parking garages and lots tend to be concentrated around cities’ downtown areas, businesses and business districts, entertainment venues, and other popular locations. As a parking owner or operator, you probably face a lot of competition. What are the primary factors that lead a driver to choose one parking facility over another? Obviously, location is a big one. People want to park as close to possible to their ultimate destination, or close to public transportation outlets they can use to complete their trip, or at a convenient middle point if they have multiple destinations. If your parking facilities are... Your operation is too small. Your garage already has adequate signage and people seem to find parking just fine. Your system works well, and you only have few complaints. “Why fix it if it ain’t broke?” The parking world is dynamic. Parking behaviors, vehicle styles and shapes, variable in-space parking types (i.e EV charging, disabled access, compact vehicle, carpool vehicle, package delivery, food delivery services, etc.), variable pricing models, reserved and VIP access, all combine to add complexity to any operation. Parking guidance systems (PGS) are transformative technology for both parking and transportation management. By guiding drivers to available parking makes the parking experience much more driver-friendly, makes parking more manageable, and it improves parking operators’ profitability. It also reduces congestion on city streets, making them safer and promoting sustainability. And now, with the impending migration to “smart cities,” parking guidance technology will become essential and omnipresent. Frictionless parking has been the predominant trend in parking over the past five years. By combining different technologies to offer a completely hands-free experience, parking owners are providing a much better parking experience. Frictionless parking suites typically include access and revenue control equipment (the gates that permit access and egress and the associated payment equipment), license plate recognition (LPR) equipment, parking guidance technology, and a reservations and/or mobile payment platform. Many of us have been there. Scanning and searching for open parking as we cruise through a crowded garage. Suddenly, out of the corner of your eye you see a pedestrian crossing in front of your vehicle. It's a known fact that anything that begins to be publicly measured begins to adjust. Because we don’t know what we don’t know, having access to data will only help: planning, architecture, facilities management, financial planning, and operations. Curb management is the next frontier for parking management and guidance. Los Angeles’ latest mixed-use development has chosen to leverage EnSight Technologies’ car counting and parking guidance ecosystem for The Grand LA by Related. A two-level sub-terainian parking garage, The Grand LA will be the newest location within EnSight’s rapidly growing portfolio to leverage its machine-learning and neural network software for zone and level counting. Have you ever wandered aimlessly through a huge, packed parking lot or garage looking for that elusive parking space? You probably got increasingly frustrated as you drove through aisle after aisle, looking at row after row of parked cars, not an open space in site. The longer you looked, the later you became for work, an appointment, or a flight. Finding a parking space is often an exercise in frustration. Summer has barely begun, and the summer travel rush is already in full swing. Much was made of the huge numbers of Americans who traveled by air and on the highways over the Memorial Day holiday, and that trend hasn’t let up, and likely won’t. In fact, 77% of Americans say they are planning to take a summer trip this year. Parking guidance is probably the most important technology to emerge from the parking industry’s ongoing evolution. Parking guidance systems dramatically improve the parking experience while, at the same time, helping to maximize parking occupancy and improve management. Drivers benefit by not having to waste valuable time searching for a parking space; thus enjoying more time dining, attending entertainment, or shopping. Chris Scheppmann has been named a finalist for the San Diego Business Journal’s 40 Next Top Business Leaders Under 40 award. Americans are on the move again. With vaccines widely available throughout the United States and about half of Americans vaccinated, people are starting to hit the road. The recent Memorial Day weekend saw a 500% increase in air travel alone, with nearly 11 million people flying over the holiday weekend and almost 35 million more embarking on Memorial Day road trips by car. EnSight Technologies announced today that Jonathan Herrera has joined the company as Director of Marketing. In his new role, Herrera will oversee EnSight’s branding, marketing, advertising, communication, and public relations initiatives. EnSight Technologies announced the successful completion of a parking guidance grid connecting Redwood City’s municipal parking structures with several private parking garages into a single easy-to-use and manage parking guidance system. EnSight installed its intelligent camera-based occupancy management system at three city garages: Jefferson, 889, and Marshall. The addition of these garages brings EnSight’s technology to five total garages totaling 1,400 parking spaces in Downtown Redwood City. In science fiction novels, artificial intelligence (AI) conjures images of out-of-control computers destroying humanity and taking over the earth. It’s scary stuff. Fortunately, the reality is much less terrifying—and much more beneficial to parkers and parking owners and operators. One of the most significant recent breakthroughs in parking guidance technology is machine learning. Through machine learning, parking guidance has become more accurate and more useful for both parking inventory management and curb management. Park City, UT (August 26, 2020) — EnSight Technologies announced today that its smart, simple, and scalable parking guidance and occupancy management technology has been installed at the Summit County, Utah Park & Ride, which provides parking and bus service to the Park City Mountain Ski Resort, commuter parking, and event parking for the local school and church across the street from the lot.
