Stop Wasting Time on Manual Parking Patrols

Managing parking areas with traditional methods drains resources and creates enforcement gaps. Our LPR system captures license plate information automatically, comparing each vehicle license plate against your parking database in real-time.

Every vehicle entering your parking location gets logged instantly. The system checks permit holders, validates virtual permit access, and flags vehicles without proper parking privileges. Your team receives immediate alerts on their handheld device when parking enforcement action is needed.

What LPR Technology Delivers to Property Managers

  • Automated license plate recognition from both front license plate and rear plate positions
  • Real-time parking portal access to monitor all parking areas from any device
  • Instant verification of valid permit status and parking permit expiration dates
  • Digital parking database storing vehicle information and license plate data indefinitely
  • Integration with existing parking access control systems and gated entry points
  • Zero manual data entry eliminates errors from traditional enforcement vehicle patrols

How License Plate Recognition Works at Your Property

LPR cameras installed at entry points, exit lanes, and throughout your parking space capture photographic data of every vehicle. The LPR software processes license plate numbers fast, matching them against your permit database in milliseconds.

The system works like law enforcement speed cameras, but for parking compliance. High-resolution cameras capture clear images in any lighting condition, reading temporary plates, rental vehicle tags, and standard plates equally well. All LPR data gets timestamped with global positioning system coordinates and stored for your administrative channels to review.

Complete Parking Management Through Your LPR Portal

  • Monitor real-time occupancy across all parking locations from your parking portal dashboard
  • Issue and track virtual permits instantly without printing physical permit stickers
  • Generate automated parking enforcement reports showing violation patterns and repeat offenders
  • Track permit holders by vehicle make, license plate number, and parking duration
  • Receive instant mobile alerts when unauthorized vehicles enter restricted parking areas
  • Access complete driver information and vehicle history with one search

Built for Every Parking Environment

LPR technology adapts to any parking configuration. Surface parking lots get mobile LPR cameras that scan while driving through drive lanes. Multi-level parking garages use fixed cameras covering each driving lane and exit point. Gated facilities integrate LPR with barrier arms for automatic entry based on license plate recognition.

The system manages everything from short-term parking for visitors to annual permits for residents. Parking services providers use LPR data to optimize space allocation and parking enforcement strategies. Transportation services companies integrate our LPR system with their fleet management platforms for smooth parking access control.

Our service standard is what drives us to be the best in the business and why we continue to do things differently than our competitors.

Parkify identified an opportunity to turn our underutilized, unmonetized deck into a reliable revenue stream. We’ve been able to reinvest that income to improve and increase the value of our properties across metro Atlanta.

By utilizing Parkify’s technology, we were able to tap into the late-night activity in the district and generate revenue from our front lot—previously reserved for future residents and daytime guests. Now, local business patrons are parking on-site after hours, creating a new revenue stream when the leasing office is closed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is license plate recognition technology?

Modern LPR systems achieve 95-98% accuracy in ideal conditions. Our cameras capture both front and rear plates, use infrared illumination for night reading, and process images even when vehicles are moving at normal parking lot speeds. The system flags low-confidence reads for manual review through your parking portal.

Can LPR cameras read temporary plates and rental vehicle tags?

Yes. The LPR software is trained to recognize standard plates, temporary paper plates, dealer tags, and rental vehicle identifiers. When the system encounters an unreadable plate, it captures photographic data for your team to review and manually add to the parking database.

How do virtual permits work with license plate recognition?

Instead of issuing physical permits, you assign parking privileges directly to license plate numbers in your parking portal. When that vehicle enters, the LPR system automatically verifies their valid permit status and grants access. Permit holders can update their vehicle information through administrative channels if they change cars.

What happens when someone parks without a valid permit?

The LPR system imediately identifies unauthorized vehicles by comparing captured license plate information against your parking database. You receive an alert with the vehicle’s location, photographic evidence, and parking duration. You can then dispatch enforcement personnel or issue automated violation notices to the registered owner.

Does the system work in all weather and lighting conditions?

Yes. LPR cameras use specialized infrared and visible light imaging to capture clear license plate data in rain, snow, fog, darkness, and bright sunlight. The cameras adjust automatically to immediate surroundings and lighting changes, ensuring consistent license plate recognition 24/7 across all parking areas.
