How Mobile LPR Improves Operational Efficiency and Security
For those of us in the real estate industry, we have encountered our fair share of parking dilemmas and grievances. A revolutionary technological stride that has eradicated several resounding issues was the introduction of license plate recognition (LPR) technology into the real estate and parking industry. With LPR at the helm, property managers and owners saw a vertical leap in efficiency for their parking operations, took advantage of significant cost savings, and reaped the benefits of drastically improved safety and security for all drivers and parking facility employees. But what about mobile LPR? ParqEx, a market leader in AI-driven property technology, has built a mobile LPR enforcement tool to move LPR technology forward, which has served many existing ParqEx properties with enforcement. Keep reading to discover how mobile LPR improves operational efficiency and security at your property.
Let’s give you a refresher on what license plate recognition technology is!
License plate recognition (LPR) technology uses advanced infrared cameras at a property’s entry and exit points to scan and identify license plates’ unique combinations of numbers and letters. With each scan, LPR verifies that only authorized vehicles can access the property. ParqEx’s AI-enhanced cameras, known for their reliability and accuracy, guarantee the correct identification and reading of each license plate, even during challenging weather and low-light conditions. With AI-powered LPR cameras at the gate (or garage door), the enforcement and security of the property are strengthened. Due to LPR’s astonishing operational efficiency and security success, ParqEx’s Enforcer app now has a tool dedicated purely to mobile LPR.
What is mobile LPR, and how can it benefit me?
ParqEx’s mobile LPR makes things—you guessed it—mobile! Property owners, managers, enforcement officers, and staff can use their mobile devices to take pictures and scan vehicle license plates. After uploading the high-resolution photos to the Enforcer app, detailed information about the vehicle is displayed, allowing users to see the vehicle’s detailed history on the property. To further improve operational efficiency, the Enforcer app enables property managers and enforcement officers to issue parking tickets and violations within seconds if needed immediately.
Mobile LPR enhances operational efficiency, improves security, and provides a convenient solution to parking management. ParqEx’s mobile LPR allows you to look forward to a more streamlined and secure parking experience. But what are some more detailed examples of the benefits of mobile LPR? Let’s dive into it.
What are some benefits of the ParqEx Enforcer app’s mobile LPR tool?
ParqEx specializes in providing an end-to-end enforcement solution for all properties. Its AI-leveraged Enforcer app is ideal for property managers, HOA boards, enforcement agencies, booting companies, architects, and builders & developers. So, the app becomes far more robust when ParqEx combines its market-proven enforcement solution (check out some Enforcer app featured case studies) with a mobile LPR enforcement tool. Here are some examples of the benefits that mobile LPR provides and how mobile license plate recognition improves operational efficiency and security:
Absolute Control and Visibility
ParqEx’s technology delivers total control and visibility over every vehicle coming and going from the property. Property management and enforcement officers can quickly enforce the parking facility with mobile LPR. After scanning and uploading the license plate image, users can quickly determine which vehicles are authorized and which violate parking rules and restrictions. Upon seeing detailed vehicle history reports, owners and managers can issue citations for violations and decide which vehicles are no longer allowed on their property (i.e., repeat offenders).
Real-Time Data
When LPR cameras scan a license plate, the data is immediately delivered to the Enforcer app on phones, tablets, and computers. Is there a specific vehicle on the property about which you need more information? Take a picture and gain a detailed history report on the car within seconds.
Secure Cross-Platform Convenience
No matter which platform your management team or enforcement officers prefer, the Enforcer app is compatible with iOS, Microsoft, Android, etc. devices. The enforcement solution app operates across all platforms, and ParqEx’s cloud-hosted API technology guarantees that users can seamlessly integrate and export data between devices. As the mobile license plate recognition tool simply requires a camera to scan the license plate, enforcement officers can use any device, take necessary enforcement actions, and be on their way.
Instant Citations & Paperless Ticketing
After taking a photo and uploading it to the mobile LPR tool in the Enforcer app, enforcement officers can instantly issue violations via the app. Property owners can save money and go green by eliminating the need for printed parking tickets. To further facilitate the issuing of citations, they are given entirely electronically with the Enforcer app, and vehicle owners can now pay for tickets through the enforcement revenue collections module built within the app.
Reporting & Notifications
Property managers and enforcement officers can receive real-time reporting and notifications through the Enforcer app with mobile LPR functionality. When enforcement officers scan, tag, or issue a parking violation to a vehicle, reports will be submitted and delivered on the platform. Of course, you can customize the information to suit your property’s needs, but there will never be a lack of data analytics and reporting with ParqEx’s mobile LPR tool in the Enforcer app.
