This report provides Transforma Insights’ view on the Parking Space Monitoring market. This segment comprises of both public and private parking spaces. Drivers spend an average of 20 minutes daily looking for a parking space; this is responsible for almost 30% of all traffic congestion in urban areas and causes 28 million tonnes of CO2 emissions every year. Smart parking solutions are being introduced to counter this situation and help drivers find a parking spot easily and without any delays. These solutions have been shown to reduce CO2 emissions by more than 2% and traffic volume by 8% in Europe. Smart Parking devices use a host of Short Range technologies, such as RFID (for scanning tags on the vehicles), Wi-Fi, NB-IoT, and other Cellular technologies to communicate the status of parking lots to drivers and operators in real-time. The report provides a detailed definition of the sector, analysis of market development and profiles of the key vendors in the space. It also provides a summary of the current status of adoption and Transforma Insights’ ten-year forecasts for the market. The forecasts include analysis of the number of IoT connections by geography, the technologies used (including splits by 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, LPWA, short range, satellite, and others), as well as the revenue split between module, value-added connectivity, and services. A full set of forecast data, including country-level forecasts, sector break-downs and public/private network splits, is available through the IoT Forecast tool.

Key market developments in Parking Space Monitoring Solutions

This section of the report first begins with the challenges faced by drivers in finding suitable parking space, which in turn, leads to increased traffic congestion in urban areas and emission on GHGs into the atmosphere. For instance, looking for a parking space is responsible for almost 30% of all traffic congestion in urban areas and emits 28 million tonnes of CO2 every year. It then explains how smart parking solutions can alleviate these problems. For example, these solutions allow drivers identify the nearest vacant parking space. Some of them also have integrated payments and can control the entry and exit barriers to the parking lot.

In a tabular format, the report then charts some important countries, cities, and deployment statistics of smart parking solutions. These countries include the US, Argentina, Switzerland, Slovenia, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Austria, Poland, Romania, Spain, Germany, Italy, San Marino, Portugal, India, China, the UAE, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Wales, the
UK, Ethiopia, and Canada. The report then examines key factors that are influencing the development of the parking space monitoring market, including:

Communication technologies used by smart parking solutions

This section of the report discusses in detail how a range of communication technologies are used to monitor parking spaces (such as short-range or wide area connectivity is used to monitor a specific space or using RFID tags and ANPR cameras to monitor the entrance of parking garages). It also discusses at length how the deployment of RFID tags and ANPR cameras can prove to be beneficial (like automating the parking process) for parking space monitoring.

It also discusses specific communication technologies (such as LPWA, Wi-Fi, and Cellular), their respective pros and cons, and how they can be deployed to ensure better experiences for users. For instance, although Wi-Fi costs low, it can offer connectivity only up to a short distance.

Challenges to implementation

This section of the report discusses the primary challenges about the deployment of parking space monitoring devices (such as the governments of different countries taking aggressive measures to reduce parking spaces to encourage the use of public transport among citizens to reduce emissions and promote sustainability) and the increasing adoption of autonomous vehicles, among many others.

It also provides a few examples of relevant IoT deployments in this application, including the municipality of Valletta using smart parking software for parking management and Park & Control using Vodafone Business IoT solution to monitor parking spaces in Europe.
