Metrici LPR Parking Module recognising a licence plate at a parking barrier

Occupancy · Two Different Questions

How many cars are inside is not the same as which space is free

Both are sold as "real-time occupancy". They are two different measurements, done by two different Metrici engines. Choosing the wrong one is an expensive surprise — so here is the difference up front.

Metrici LPR Parking Module

Counts vehicles through the gates

Cameras at every entry and exit read each licence plate. Vehicles inside = entries − exits, per gate, zone or floor, with full history and a photo for every event.

  • Answers: how many vehicles are inside right now
  • Answers: who is inside, since when, through which gate
  • Feeds billing, subscriptions, barriers and LED counters
  • Does not know which individual bay is free
  • A count drifts if a vehicle bypasses a monitored point
Best for: access control, pay-by-plate billing, revenue reconciliation, "lot full" thresholds and alarms.
Metrici PPD · Parking Place Detector

Watches every individual space

Cameras overlooking the lot check each marked bay and report it free or occupied, live. One camera covers dozens of spaces — no gates and no in-ground sensors needed.

  • Answers: which exact spaces are free right now
  • Live occupancy map, per bay and per zone
  • Guides drivers with arrows on Metrici LED displays
  • Sees double parking and driving on the pavement
  • Works in open lots and on-street parking, with no gates
Best for: driver guidance, occupancy maps, reserved-bay enforcement, large open and street parking.

Every Bay, Live

Each marked space reports free or occupied in real time — a true occupancy map, not an estimated count.

📷

One Camera, Dozens of Spaces

No in-ground sensors, no trenching, no per-space wiring. Existing IP cameras are usually enough.

Driver Guidance

Live floor-map overlay plus arrows on Metrici LED displays send drivers straight to an empty space.
