Congonhas Airport Enjoys Quercus Technologies’ Global Parking Solution

Quercus Technologies’ integral solution allows them to manage the 1233 spots of the car park Congonhas Airport, the second busiest in Brazil. The management of the facilities was recently outsourced and will be in charge of ESTAPAR Co for the next 20 years at least.

470 Spot Control sensors were installed to increase security and control inside the car parks. These sensors detect the vehicle in each bay, recognize their license plate number and record all detected movements. In addition, each Spot Control indicates the availability of up to four bays each. Thanks to this technology, finding a spot is much easier for customers, as well as returning to their vehicle, since the system controls at all times the spot where the vehicle is parked, thanks to license plate recognition.

Eight units of the SmartLPR Access cameras were also installed at the entrances and exits of the parking lot. These cameras read and identify the license plates of all vehicles accessing or leaving the premises, recording the moment when these movements take place. The cameras’ high reliability in license plate recognition guarantees keeping track of movements, may make the entry and exit of some vehicles automatic or block their passage, increase traffic flow, reduce queues, and allow you to book spots.

LED displays were installed to guide users in their search for a parking spot since they inform in real-time where the free bays are in each of the areas. They also inform about the type of spots (VIP, disabled parking, etc). This way, the search time decreases and therefore ventilation of the facilities improves because CO2 emissions decrease. User experience also improves due to increased efficiency which avoids time losses and stress for clients.

All the products we offer in our global parking solution connect thanks to the BirdWatch software platform, also developed by Quercus Technologies. BirdWatch obtains and coordinates all collected information (Big Data). It can write reports or create graphs of statistics using that information. With this resource, parking operators can take strategic decisions, for example adapting prices based on client use or designing marketing campaigns in order to build customer loyalty.

In conclusion, the global parking solution developed by Quercus Technologies provides everything necessary to increase operator benefits and maximize the return on investment while the end-user lives a relaxed, efficient and enjoyable experience. The best option to manage your parking comfortably and safely, guaranteeing a first-class experience for the best customers.
