- Difficulty of implementation
-
Distribution of parking bays all over the county Kerry and strict timeline for sensor installation required efforts on route planning and optimization. Rainy weather in Ireland also had an impact
Some areas have low internet coverage so it took some common work with LoRaWan network provider to ensure the sensors communication
- Project Description
-
County Kerry, located in the southwest part of Ireland, is one of Ireland's most well-known counties, with a population of 156,458 in 2023. It is well-known for its prominent tourist sites, including the Ring of Kerry, Killarney National Park, Ross Castle, Dingle Peninsula, and many others. These sites frequently attract people from all over the world, making an equitable and effective parking management system a crucial component of making County Kerry a more attractive destination for visitors. So they started a programme to implement Smart parking solutions across the County. Phase I was to install 300+ parking sensors on the parking bays for people with special needs. Parking sensors send signals to the parking management system about parking bay occupancy. This data is also provided directly to the mobile application to help drivers find available parking spaces in real time, assisting them in finding a free spot.
