Parking Systems Overview

What happens when drivers search for an available parking space never realizing there are open spaces nearby? When drivers are stuck in traffic, circling the area, or waiting in line at a full facility everybody loses. Instead direct those parkers quickly and efficiently to where it benefits you the most!

• Reduce time wasted looking for spaces
• Reduce incidents/accidents
• Reduce fuel and emissions wasted
• Improve customer loyalty in a competitive market

TCS Parking Guidance Systems provide strategically located signs at key locations displaying real-time parking space availability. Imagine having a reputation for easy parking and helping the environment at the same time!

Industries using Parking Guidance Systems

There are a variety of industries that are well suited to benefit from a Parking Guidance System implementation. Our environmentally friendly solutions help institutions such as colleges, shopping centers, and hospitals greatly simplify parking for their visitors. Cities, business districts, and airports can also diminish the impact of peak-load traffic conditions and reduce vehicle emissions by minimizing the time drivers spend finding a place to park.

How Parking Guidance Works

TCS Parking Guidance Systems guide the flow of parkers by displaying actual counts, and their locations on strategically located space availability signs.  These signs are updated with count information in real-time from a wide range of sources:

• Integration with existing parking management systems
• Ultrasonic sensors
• Magnetic field sensors
• Induction loops and barrier contacts
• Physical inventories

TCS International can help manage every step of installation and integration to bring the benefits of Parking Guidance to your operation.
