Analyzing Parking Space Utilization
Access the Analysis Tab:
Navigate to the "Reports" menu within the Dibsido app.
Select the "Parking" option and then click on the "Analysis" tab.
Review Usage Metrics:
Total Usage: View the total usage percentage over the past 30, 60, or 90 days. This metric shows how much of your parking space capacity is being utilized over time.
Today's Usage: Check the current day’s usage percentage to see how much of the parking space is occupied today.
Identify High-Demand Spots:
Most Used Spots: The analysis provides a breakdown of the most used parking spots. This information helps identify which spots are in the highest demand, which can inform decisions about allocation and potential adjustments to parking policies.
Track User Activity:
Most Active Users: The analysis also shows which users are the most active in booking parking spots. Understanding who is using the parking most frequently can help in managing reservations and ensuring fair access.
Evaluate Underutilized Spots:
Least Used Spots: Conversely, identifying the least used spots can highlight areas of underutilization. This might prompt a review of parking space allocation, perhaps considering repurposing or reassigning these spots to increase their usage.
Use Cases for Analyzing Utilization
Optimizing Parking Allocation: By identifying which spots are most and least used, you can make data-driven decisions about how to allocate parking resources more effectively.
Adjusting Policies: If certain users or departments are using the majority of the parking space, you may want to adjust your policies to ensure more equitable access across the organization.
Planning for Expansion or Reduction: If your parking spaces are consistently underused or overused, this could inform decisions about whether to expand parking facilities or consider alternatives such as carpool incentives or public transport options.
Analyzing parking space utilization helps ensure that your organization’s parking resources are being used efficiently, providing the data needed to optimize allocation and improve overall management.
