Patent ID: 10186152

Abstract:
Systems, apparatuses and methods are provided herein for monitoring a parking area. A system for monitoring a parking area comprises an image database storing a plurality of images of a parking lot taken by one or more satellites over time, a baseline database storing baseline models of a plurality of sections of the parking lot, and a control circuit coupled to the image database and the baseline database. The control circuit being configured to: determine a utilization condition for each of the plurality of sections of the parking lot based on performing image analysis on the plurality of images of the parking lot, compare the utilization condition for each of the plurality of sections of the parking lot with the baseline model of the plurality of sections of the parking lot, and in an event that the utilization condition of a section of the plurality of sections of the parking lot substantially deviates from the baseline model of the section, automatically generate an action recommendation for the section of the parking lot.
