Aegis Park Operates Unmanned System for Geoje City Public On-Street Parking Lots
[Asia Economy Reporter Ryu Tae-min] EasySpark, an IT company specializing in parking sharing and control platforms, announced that it will begin installation and operation of an unmanned on-street parking lot system using ground control devices in Geoje City, Gyeongnam Province.
Following installations and operations in public on-street parking lots in Yeosu City, Jeonnam Province, and Jeju Island, EasySpark has started a pilot project in Geoje City, Gyeongnam Province, and will operate it from January 3.
EasySpark’s on-street parking operation system, ‘EasyLocker,’ works by raising a control device embedded in the ground when a vehicle parks. Upon exit, users can settle parking fees at a nearby payment terminal or by scanning a QR code attached to each parking space. This activates the ground control device to allow the vehicle to exit, enabling contactless and unmanned operation.
EasySpark stated that its on-street parking system primarily shares parking spaces with vehicles wanting to park during off-peak hours and distributes the resulting revenue, aiming to realize a sharing economy that benefits both users and providers. It is a parking sharing platform similar to the lodging sharing platform Airbnb or the vehicle sharing platform Uber.
Geoje City plans to expand the EasySpark on-street parking system to all paid public on-street parking lots managed by the city based on the operation results of about 100 on-street parking spaces in the Gohyeon-dong downtown area after system implementation.
