Parking Count

Know how much parking space is really available

Granting access based on a licence plate is one thing. Knowing how many vehicles are actually present and whether there is still space available goes one step further.

With Park-R Parking Count, every entry and exit is included in the current parking occupancy. You see in real time how many vehicles are parked, how many spaces are free and what the occupancy rate is: for the whole location, per company and, with Parking Sections, per zone. Park-R takes that capacity into account when granting access.

From access control to capacity management

Not just deciding who may enter

Without parking count, Park-R decides whether someone has access based on, for example, licence plate, access rights, time schedules and reservations.

Parking Count adds an important factor: is there actually still parking capacity available?

Park-R registers every parking session. With Parking Count, a session counts towards occupancy for as long as the vehicle is inside, and Park-R uses that occupancy when deciding on access.

Automatically manage available capacity

Make sure parking arrangements do not just exist on paper

Especially at locations where parking space is shared, access control alone is often not enough. A user may have access to the location while the available parking capacity is already fully used at that moment.

With Parking Count, Park-R can respond automatically when the set capacity has been reached. Further access can then be restricted, so you prevent structurally admitting more vehicles than there is space for.

Limits can also be applied to the number of vehicles one user has inside at the same time.

Direct insight into current occupancy

From assumptions to overview

How busy is it right now? Is the car park full? And how much space is still available?

Parking Count makes this information visible straight away. A manager no longer has to rely solely on the access rights or reservations that were issued, but gains insight into the actual use of the car park. You see the parking pressure at any moment.

That makes it easier to monitor parking arrangements and use capacity more smartly.

Capacity per company and reserved spaces

Every company its own space

For each company you set a number of spaces for regular users and a number for guests. When the location is full, a user with a free reserved space still gets in. Other vehicles are refused as long as there is no space.

Respond automatically

Switch a FULL sign or close a barrier

As soon as a location, company or section is full or has space again, Park-R can start an automation, for example to switch a FULL sign. A licence plate that is refused because the car park is full can also start an automation.

A camera at the entrance and at the exit

Parking Count works with a camera at the entrance and at the exit. Without an exit camera, Park-R does not know when a vehicle leaves. Parking spaces can then be released automatically at night.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Parking Count

What is the difference between access control and parking count?

Access control decides who may enter based on licence plate, access rights, time schedules and reservations. Parking Count adds current occupancy, so Park-R also refuses access when capacity has been reached.

Which cameras do I need?

A camera at the entrance and at the exit. Without an exit camera, Park-R does not know when a vehicle leaves.

Can I show occupancy on a display or in my own app?

Yes, through the Park-R API. See API Access.
