Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of managing the issuing of parking rights in an area comprising a plurality of parking places, wherein said parking rights are issued by a parking management party through a plurality of parking operators providing said parking rights to users for parking in said parking spaces.
  • the present invention further relates to a parking management system for use with a method as described above, and a computer program for use in such a system.
  • the present invention further relates to a parking space navigation system for use with a method as described above.
  • the issuing of parking rights for parking vehicles within the city is often the task of a community counsel.
  • the community counsel may delegate this task to one or more of parking operators, allowing them to provide parking rights to users or customers in exchange for payment.
  • Each parking operator may, for instance, facilitate parking in a specific part or area within the city. Parking operators may also exploit a parking garage withing the city. Another possibility is that a department of the city counsel, or another governmental organisation, is responsible for management and maintenance of parking rights distribution systems, such as parking metres, parking ticket dispensers, and the like, which systems enable users to acquire a parking right for a specific duration of time, also referred to as an incidental parking right.
  • parking rights distribution systems such as parking metres, parking ticket dispensers, and the like, which systems enable users to acquire a parking right for a specific duration of time, also referred to as an incidental parking right.
  • a user or customer may park his car within a mobile parking zone, after which the user calls a dedicated telephone number, and types in a zone number and a client identification number (e.g. his vehicle license plate number). His parking right is thereby established, and the duration of the parking activity is registered in a centralized server of the parking operator. At the end of the parking activity, the parking right may be ended by the customer the same way as it was started, by making a phone call to a telephone number and providing his client number.
  • a client identification number e.g. his vehicle license plate number
  • a parking warden charged with verifying the existence or validity of parking rights for parked vehicles, passes the customer's car, he may simply consult the database of the parking operator, e.g. using a handheld computer or a dedicated wireless device, to verify the validity of the parking right.
  • a disadvantage of providing parking rights using a plurality of parking operators is that all these operators may use different parking right distribution systems and methods for providing the parking rights to the customer.
  • One or more parking operators may use the concept of mobile phone assisted parking, while other parking operators simply make use of parking tickets (e.g. exploiting a parking garage).
  • the city counsel may in some parts of the city make use of parking metres. Altogether, it becomes very difficult for a city counsel to keep track on parking statistics in the city, and to identify or resolve parking problems, since all the distribution systems must be consulted and a number of these systems are only accessible by the parking operators using them.
  • each system used to assist the distribution parking rights has it's own method of registering parking activity.
  • Some systems such as old fashioned parking metres, do not register any information about parking activity.
  • the amount of inserted coins may be counted and registered, giving some clue of the amount of parking activity through said parking metre, but on a very low level without detail.
  • Other systems may be equipped with memory means for providing a list of dispensed parking tickets upon request. However, this list must be analysed by the city counsel separately.
  • a city counsel must analyse information regarding parking activity in a city bit by bit in order to gain insight in the 'big picture'. As will be understood, this has a negative effect on adapting parking policy or gaining insight in the amount of income generated through parking in the city.
  • a park warden charged with verifying the existence and validity of parking rights has to get used of all the different systems that are implemented for distributing the parking rights amongst users.
  • the parking warden must check whether there is a parking ticket on the dashboard of a car, if this is not the case, he must type in the license plate number on a mobile device in order to check the availability of this license plate number in the database of a parking operator. If there are several parking operators using the concept of mobile phone assisted parking, the park warden must verify every database used for registering parking rights managed by every parking operator.
  • Another problem is created when providing parking rights in specific areas of a city is delegated to specific operators, each operator running his area within a city. Suppose a number of these operators use the concept of mobile phone assisted parking.
  • the city may thus be divided in different areas managed by specific operators, and each area may comprise one or more mobile parking zones where mobile phone assisted parking service of that specific operator may be used.
  • a method of managing the issuing of parking rights in an area comprising a plurality of parking places, wherein said parking rights are issued by a parking management party through a plurality of parking operators providing said parking rights to users for parking in said parking spaces, wherein providing at least one parking right by a providing parking operator of said parking operators to a user comprises the steps of: receiving from said user, by said providing parking operator, a request for said at least one parking right; said providing parking operator providing said at least one parking right to said user in response to said request by forwarding parking right data of said at least one parking right to a parking database to which said parking operators are operatively connected; and storing said parking right data in said database for managing said issuing of parking rights.
  • each of the parking operators stores parking right data
  • the data is available in a central repository, enabling instant information provisioning regarding all parking activity performed by issuing parking rights trough said parking operators.
  • Said parking operators may include all operators that provide parking rights to users within the full area mentioned above, enabling direct knowledge of all parking activity in the area and improving control over parking policy.
  • a city counsel may consult a parking database to which all parking operators are connected, in order to acquire parking statistics and in order to adapt the parking policy in the city.
  • a central parking database Another advantage of the use of a central parking database, is the fact that it enables central registration of parking rights, whilst each of the parking operators may at the same time run its own administration systems in order to manage parking activity of their own customers. Administration and financial settlement of parking activity will be performed by the parking operators independent from each other, and without having to rely on information exchange.
  • parking operator A is authorised to provide parking rights to users in neighbourhood A in a city.
  • Parking operator A offers a mobile (phone assisted) parking service to its customers.
  • parking operator B also provides mobile phone assisted parking in neighbourhood B in the same city.
  • a customer of parking operator A parks his car in one of the mobile parking zones in neighbourhood B, managed by parking operator B.
  • Parking operator B provides the customer a parking right and forwards and stores the parking right details in the parking database, which is for example owned by the city counsel. Since the parking right details are stored in the parking database, parking operator A can follow all parking activity of its customer everywhere in the city. Therefore, if the customer parks his car in neighbourhood B and uses the mobile phone assisted parking service through operator B, the use of the service can be billed by parking operator A. Therefore the terms and conditions agreed between parking operator A and the customer can be applied to the use of the mobile phone assisted parking service, while the fact that parking operator B actually provided the service is transparent to the customer.
  • parking operator B receives a payment for the use of its service from parking operator A. Also and, because of the use of the parking database, independent from the payment made by operator A to operator B, the city counsel receives the official parking fee or parking tax from operator A.
  • the method of the present invention not only provides instant insight in parking statistics, but in addition enables the provisioning of parking rights to customers of the parking operators in such a way that the underlying structure of parking operators running their own partial area becomes transparent to the customer.
  • the mobile phone assisted parking service is always provided by a single operator under the agreed terms and conditions.
  • the use of a central parking database to which the parking operators are connected also reduces the complexity of the financial settlement of the provisioning of the services by the operators.
  • the parking right data comprises vehicle identification data of a vehicle for which at least one parking right is intended.
  • This vehicle identification data may comprise a license plate number of the vehicle, or alternatively license identification data of a parking license issued for said vehicle. In both cases the identification data is unique for each vehicle.
  • the vehicle identification data may be provided by the user to the parking operator, according to an embodiment of the invention. It may however alternatively be retrieved from an operator database, upon receipt of the request for a parking right from the user. Giving a specific example of this latter embodiment; a customer may use his mobile phone to call the mobile phone assisted parking operator number for a specific mobile parking zone. If the customer is known to the parking operator managing the provisioning of parking rights in the specific area, calling line identification data (CLID) of the call to the operator number may be used by the operator to recognise the customer and match him in an operator database and to retrieve his license plate number. As will be understood, the customer may be provided an opportunity to use a different license plate number for parking a different car using the service, e.g. by providing said license plate number over the phone.
  • CLID calling line identification data
  • the parking right data may include a variety of details regarding the parking right provided.
  • duration data of the duration of the parking activity is stored in a parking database. This duration may for example include a fixed time limit for which the parking right is valid, however alternatively the parking right might be flexible depending on the desired duration of the parking activity.
  • said step of storing said duration data comprises the step of storing in said database an indication of a starting moment on which the parking right becomes effective. This starting moment may include starting time or starting date of the day on which the parking right has (or will) become effective.
  • said step of storing said duration data further comprises the step of storing in said parking database an indication of an ending moment on which the parking right ceases to be effective. Said ending moment may similarly include the ending time or ending date of the day on which the parking right ceases to be effective.
  • the total duration of the parking right may be fixed up front, e.g. by the customer providing to the parking operator the desired duration of the parking activity, or may be limited by regulations, for instance by the city counsel only allowing parking in a certain area for a short period of time (e.g. two hours) in which case this may be specified in the parking database.
  • the sending of parking right data to the central database for example a step of determination of the moment on which the parking right data is received in the central database, and fixing and storing a determined moment in time as the starting moment of the parking right.
  • a similar trigger may be sent through the parking operator to the central parking database at the end of the parking activity.
  • the ending moment of the parking right may be determined automatically (by a server or other means on which the central parking database is stored), and may be stored in the central database.
  • the parking right data may further include location data for which the parking right is provided. This location data may be valid for a specific location, e.g. a specific parking place within the parking area, or within a part of the area such as a certain street, or a parking lot or parking garage.
  • the method further includes a step of accessing said parking database for verification of existence or validity of a parking right for a parked vehicle.
  • This enables an enforcement of the parking policy by the parking management party (e.g. the city counsel).
  • a traffic warden may for instance retrieve a list of valid parking rights for a certain street within the city limits, or within another partial area of the area comprising the parking places. This list may be used by the traffic warden to verify whether the vehicles parked within the area are registered as having a valid parking right in the parking database. The traffic warden may thus walk through the street and check license plate numbers of parked vehicles on the retrieved list.
  • said step of accessing said parking database comprises a step of querying the parking database for the availability therein of parking data comprising vehicle identification data of a parked vehicle within the area comprising the parking places.
  • the traffic warden may for instance forward the details of a specific vehicle to the parking database and receive parking right details for that vehicle, or may simply receive a notification on whether or not a parking right for the vehicle exists or is still valid.
  • Accessing the parking database may, according to an embodiment of the invention, be performed by using a mobile querying device arranged for remote access.
  • the traffic warden may simply type in the license plate number or, alternatively, a parking license number of a vehicle in the mobile querying device.
  • the traffic warden then receives the required details.
  • the mobile querying device is arranged for acquiring the vehicle identification number in a different manner than by receiving input from the traffic warden.
  • the mobile querying device may for instance be equipped with scanning means for scanning a license plate number of the parked vehicle, or a bar code scanner for scanning a bar code of a parking license number for the vehicle.
  • the mobile querying tool may be arranged for sensing the presence of a computer chip within the vehicle on which all details of the vehicle are listed.
  • a computer chip within the vehicle on which all details of the vehicle are listed.
  • the vehicle is equipped with a transponder which is arranged for establishing a wireless connection with the mobile querying tool of the traffic warden, for providing all of the details required for verification of the parking right.
  • parking rights may be available in a large variety of forms and types, such as incidental parking rights (parking tickets for incidental parking by the side of a road), parking licenses, parking exemptions, but also mobile phone assisted parking rights and the like.
  • a parking operator may provide parking rights using a mobile phone assisted parking service, but may alternatively provide parking tickets using a parking ticket dispenser by the side of a road, or by providing a entrance card to a parking garage and collecting the entrance cards upon exit of the vehicle from the parking garage.
  • Parking licenses issued by the city counsel, may also be registered in the central parking database. Therefore a department working under the responsibility of the city counsel, may be a 'parking operator' as meant in the present invention. It is noted that a 'parking operator' in accordance with the present invention may comprise every party which provides parking rights to users for parking their vehicles within the area.
  • the term 'parking management party' uses for describing the present invention should be understood as the party responsible for issuing the parking rights. This may be a city counsel, however it may also be a private owner of a large parking terrain on which one or more parking operators are used for providing the parking rights.
  • the method further comprises a step of querying the database by the parking management party for providing at least one parking statistics report.
  • the parking statistics report can be used to the benefit of the management party for e.g. financial purposes, or adapting its parking policy.
  • said step of providing at least one parking statistics report comprises consolidating parking right data from the parking database in dependence of location data of stored parking rights data in said parking database, for providing a location dependent parking statistics report for said area.
  • the parking right is provided to the user in exchange for a payment
  • the parking data comprises payment data for the parking right.
  • the parking right data may include the official parking fee (parking tax) for parking the vehicle on the specific location, and in addition may include payment details of the operator used for parking the vehicle. This information can be used to the benefit of all parties (the parking management party and all parking operators) for the financial settlement of parking activity within the area, and as management information for the operators or parking management party.
  • location data of issued parking rights are stored in said parking database, and said method further comprises instead of providing an indication of available unused parking spaces in said area using said location data of parking rights stored in said parking database.
  • a method may comprise a further step of providing said indication of available unused parking spaces to a user before said request for at least one parking right is received. This enables guiding the user to at least one of the available unused parking spaces. This guiding may be performed by providing an indication to the user by presenting the indication on a sign, such as a sign by the sight of the road.
  • the indication of available unused parking spaces is received by the user through receiving means installed within his vehicle.
  • These receiving means may cooperate with navigation means in said vehicle for guiding the user to at least one of the available unused parking spaces.
  • Many vehicles are nowadays equipped with navigation systems, that could beneficially be used for guiding the user to an available parking space.
  • the present invention enables guiding the user to every particular available parking space, which is not being used, in the full area managed using the method of the present invention.
  • a parking management system for use with a method according to any of the previous claims, wherein said system comprises a parking database, wherein said parking database is connected to a plurality of parking operator systems used by a plurality of parking operators for providing said parking rights to users, wherein each of said parking operator systems comprises means for receiving user requests for at least one parking right, and means for forwarding parking right data to said parking database for providing said parking right to said user.
  • a computer program for us with a system according to the second aspect described above said computer program enabling the system to carry out the method according to the first aspect of the invention.
  • a parking space navigation system for installation in a vehicle, comprising receiving means arranged for receiving an indication of at least one available unused parking space in accordance with the method as described above.
  • Said parking navigation system may comprise control means arranged for cooperating with navigation means in said vehicle, for guiding said user to at least one of said available unused parking spaces using said navigation means.
  • the enclosed figure schematically shows a parking management system according to the invention, that can be used for performing the method of the present invention.
  • a parking management party who owns or who is authorized to issue parking rights such as city counsel 1
  • a parking database 2 is owner of a parking database 2.
  • Employees working at the city counsel 1 may consult parking database 2 using a computer (not shown) and a connection through a telecommunication network such as an intranet or the internet (not shown).
  • the city counsel 1 does not provide the individually issued parking rights to users themselves, but delegates this task to a plurality of parking operators 4, 12, 18, 26.
  • the city counsel 1 therefore issues the parking rights, and uses a provisioning or distribution system for providing the parking rights through a plurality of parking operators 4, 12, 18, 26.
  • the city counsel receives a parking tax or official parking fee from the parking operator providing the parking right to a user.
  • the parking operator 4, 12, 18, 26 may request from a user, in return for providing the parking right, a payment amount consisting of the official parking fee to be paid to the city counsel 1 and an additional operator fee covering expenses and providing income to the parking operator 4, 12, 18, 26.
  • the operator fee is optional.
