Optimization of parking in the city center

How does the municipality of Saint-Médard-en-Jalles regulate parking in blue zones, thereby preventing long-term parking and ensuring rotation?

Improving the management of free parking spaces the challenge

A municipality with over 32,000 inhabitants covering a vast and diverse area.

Issues relating to parking management and public peace.

The heart of the city, which is home to numerous commercial and public services, putting significant pressure on parking availability.

The heart of the city is a hub of commercial activity and public services, generating significant pressure on parking availability. The municipality has implemented a proactive policy by converting 50% of its paid surface parking spaces into blue zone parking, to promote accessibility to shops and offer users two hours of free parking.

The City already has a video surveillance infrastructure in place, which it wishes to expand and modernize in line with its evolving operational needs.

What minUi allows:

Continuously monitor parking in the city center using video surveillance cameras to obtain a reliable history of parking space occupancy: parking duration, turnover rate, identification of authorized time limits exceeded, detection of “long-term parking,” etc.

Produce usable parking histories and indicators (occupancy, turnover, potential violations) within short timeframes to support decision-making and operational management by the municipal police.

Ensure timely and targeted enforcement of regulated parking (blue zones) at the request of the municipal police or local authorities, in order to optimize patrols and prioritize high-priority areas.

Optimize the work of municipal police officers across a large area by reducing random and time-consuming checks in favor of interventions based on objective findings.

Pool the uses of the existing video surveillance infrastructure, ensuring the coexistence of security and parking analysis functions without compromising the initial service.

Expand video surveillance coverage to ensure consistent and uniform monitoring of regulated parking areas that are insufficiently covered by the existing network.

reduce operating costs related to parking management (parking meters, service delegation) by providing objective data that can be used to adapt systems and resources.

Be part of the community’s innovation policy by integrating image analysis as a tool to aid operational and strategic decision-making.

Deployment support process

Field analysis phase

The project began with a detailed study and analysis of the realities on the ground and the specific needs for real-time, continuous parking measurement by site.

Technical deployment

Once the deployment plan has been approved, the ALYCE team conducts regulatory studies (CNIL) and defines operating scenarios with the VMS already in place.

Next, it’s time for the technical software integration of minUi Live, camera setup, and configuration of alerts for the municipal police teams.

Operational commissioning

Deployment of minUi on video streams from the video surveillance system, ramp-up of analyzed streams after a short calibration period.

Alerts sent to municipal police officers in real time on smartphones.

Exploitation & monitoring of indicators

Once operational, the municipality can access its results in real time via a SaaS interface that securely provides statistical data on parking, by location and by parking lot.

Data and alerts in the event of regulatory violations are logged for in-depth analysis.

testimony

The implementation of minUi enables the municipality to manage its parking space efficiently and in line with the highest standards in terms of system security and personal data protection.

The benefits for the City of Saint Médard following the deployment of minUi are numerous:

– Efficiency and acceptance: more targeted control, reduction in long-term parking, optimization of staffing levels, simple solution that is well accepted by users.
– Environmental sustainability: no civil engineering, no consumables, limited maintenance, no impact on asphalt and no additional electricity consumption.
– Cost control: reuse of existing infrastructure, reduced investment and operating costs, scalable and reversible system.
