Convenient Parking Payment Options: <br />Single space "Smart meters"' and pay - <br />by -plate pay stations, complemented <br />by mobile payment options such as <br />Pay -by -Phones or Parkmobile6 provide <br />users many convenient options to pay <br />for parking, such as cash, credit, or an <br />on-line account, which removes a <br />significant barrier to paid parking with <br />most of the current system.' Detailed <br />materials from mobile platform <br />vendors are provided in Appendix D for <br />City's review. <br />Pay-by-Phone4 <br />IPS Smart Meter3 <br />■ Parking Enforcement Technology: With a connected parking management and information database, <br />enforcement officers can use the City's existing mobile license plate recognition (mLPR) technology to <br />enforce on -street and lot parking more quickly and efficiently by tracking violators, mapping key <br />locations with high violation rates, and implementing handheld devices. Smartphones (iOS and <br />Android) are becoming the handheld enforcement device of choice. We recommend the City consider <br />using smartphones with accompanying software/applications, such as AutoVu Freeflow and AutoVu <br />Patroller. This will save the City from needing to purchase excess unnecessary hardware.' <br />Once up and running again, the City would have the ability to use the Genetec AutoVu Free Flow <br />Enforcement System, which can be used with fixed or mobile LPR units. Vehicles placed on the <br />violations list will be available through the back-office interface in, or synchronized dynamically with <br />parking enforcement vehicles using AutoVu mobile enforcement software to maximize enforcement <br />efficiency.' Detailed materials about Genetec's AutoVu system are provided in Appendix D for City's <br />review. <br />Mobile Applications: The ParkMe mobile application provides information about parking locations, <br />availability, and prices. This information can be provided directly to ParkMe by businesses, cities, or <br />parking facility operators.10 The application includes a map showing locations with data as well as <br />detailed information when the location is selected. In addition to the mobile application, the <br />information can be doubled as an online "widget," embedded on any city website. ParkMe is currently <br />active in Santa Monica and Walnut Creek. <br />■ Interactive Map of Parking Information: <br />The City of San Jose offers an easy -to -read <br />interactive parking map of City -operated <br />off-street parking facilities in their <br />4 http://www.parking-net.com/parking-industry/ips-group-i <br />5 https://www.paybyphone.com/ <br />s http://us.parkmobile.com/#how-it-works <br />7 It is understood that the City is currently in the process of <br />replace Parktopia which may bring their own systems and <br />8 This should be required to be compatible with any system <br />' https://www.genetec.com/Documents/EN/FeatureFocus/I <br />to https://www.parkme.com/how-it-works <br />Interactive Parking Map <br />
