Description :

This smart parking sensor uses magnetic field sensing to determine if a parking place is empty or occupied. It uses the LoRaWAN protocol standard for long-range wide-area (LPWAN) deployments for communication with the IoT AP/Gateway.
As fewer AP/Gateways are needed due to its extended range, high penetration, and high sensitivity characteristics, it is a considerably more cost-effective solution for service providers to deploy a smart parking system. Moreover, because of LoRaWAN's low power and star topology characteristics, it increases battery life compared to alternative systems.
The Smart Parking Sensor is a component of a Smart Parking System that also has a smartphone navigation software that directs users to available parking spaces close to their location.

The system also supports wireless digital side road signs that show the available parking spaces in a given parking lot or on a certain road in real-time.
Municipalities and parking lot owners provide much better service now thanks to the Smart Parking System. Along with saving fuel and air pollution, it also relieves drivers' frustration and time.

Use cases:

1. Real-time Parking Availability: The Gemtek Smart Parking Sensor WMDS-208 can be installed in parking lots and garages to monitor parking space occupancy in real-time. This information can be relayed to a mobile app or a centralized system, allowing drivers to quickly find available parking spaces and reduce time spent searching for parking.

2. Parking Space Management: The sensor enables parking lot operators to efficiently manage parking spaces. By monitoring the occupancy status, operators can identify underutilized areas and make informed decisions regarding space allocation and optimization. This helps maximize parking capacity, improve traffic flow, and enhance the overall parking experience for users.

3. Parking Violation Detection: The WMDS-208 can detect unauthorized or improperly parked vehicles. When a vehicle occupies a parking space without proper authorization or violates parking regulations, the sensor can send alerts to enforcement personnel or parking management systems, enabling timely action to address violations and maintain parking compliance.
