Parking Management

The Parking Management Subsystem provides electronic monitoring and management of parking facilities.  It supports a DSRC communications link to the Vehicle Subsystem that allows electronic collection of parking fees.  It also includes the instrumentation, signs, and other infrastructure that monitors parking lot usage and provides local information about parking availability and other general parking information.  This portion of the subsystem functionality must be located in the parking facility where it can monitor, classify, and share information with customers and their vehicles.  The subsystem also interfaces with the financial infrastructure and broadly disseminates parking information to other operational centers in the region.  Note that the latter functionality may be located in a back office, remote from the parking facility.
