The New Meter Maid

Everyone has spent time driving around their respective cities looking for that ideal parking space only to be let down after twenty minutes of circling. In despair, risk is taken by parking in a spot less than ideal, often times illegal. We ask, is a parking enforcement officer going to come around this corner? Come to this side of town? Peer into this alley for an illegally parked car? We gamble and hope that the person checking for parking violations is having a good day.

Meter maids and parking enforcement officers can now become a thing of the past. Intelligent video analytics is taking over, informing authorities remotely of illegal parking, and even suspicious street activity. Here, a New York City camera, equipped with state-of-the-art video analytics and intelligent processing has identified a vehicle that has stopped illegally in front of a judicial building.
