Flowbird ideas take off for Parkex

Flowbird Urban Intelligence, formed last year from the merger of Parkeon and Cale, will be showcasing its portfolio of parking, payment, mobile and cloud-based technologies at Parkex.
Besides parking systems, the company will be showing terminal-based services such as environmental monitoring and barcode capability.
The company will unveil a new Flowbird global mobile app that integrates parking, payment and navigation functionality.
Flowbird’s product range now includes:

• Emissions-based charging, which applies number plate information to DVLA fuel and CO2 emissions data to create dynamic parking tariffs in line with local authority environmental policies.
• Pay & display terminals with ‘Check-in, Check-out’ functionality, which enables motorists to pre-authorise a credit card at the beginning of a parking period rather than paying up front for an estimated length of stay. The charge is confirmed when the card is re-entered prior to departure, ensuring users pay only for time used without the risk of a penalty for overstaying.
• The MiniPark ticketless ANPR solution, with or without barriers.
• 4G-enabled processing modules for multi-service terminals.
• A white label account-based web payment portal that enables online transactions for local authority residents, visitors and parking operator customer groups.
• EV charging technology to help local authorities build community charging point capacity.
• Cloud-based estate management systems (Smartfolio and WebOffice).
