The parking alert is a Panel which warns Stakeholders when the amount of parking facilities in a given neighborhood is insufficient to comply with general demand or legislative requirements. This panel can be found on the Public GeoShare. This alert is useful for:

  • Urban development projects
  • Different spatial plans are compared using the 3D Visualization

The alert appears as a popup in the 3D Visualization when the amount of parking facilities required exceed the amount of parking facilities provided in a given neighborhood. The resulting panel will display the availability, demand, compliance rate, and remaining demand. The color of the popup of the alert will change based on the compliance deficit.

Alert panel

The parking alert.

The alert panel shows the following information:

  • The amount of parking lots available.
  • The amount of parking lots demanded.
  • The current compliance rate.
  • The mandated compliance rate.
  • The amount of parking lots which need to be added to meet the mandated compliance rate.

Calculation

The panels appears when

where

  • is the current amount of parking lots
  • is the amount of parking lots demanded
  • is the current compliance rate
  • is the mandated compliance rate

The mandated compliance rate is set by the neighborhood's REQUIRED_PARKING_COMPLIANCE_RATE attribute. This is not a required attribute. If the neighborhood does not have that attribute, the mandated compliance rate is 1.

Both the current amount of parking lots available and the demanded amount of parking lots are based on the Function Values of Buildings in each Neighborhood.

Additional configurations

  • The alert will automatically support Dutch and English, based on the Project's language settings.
  • The Parking alert will work out-of-the-box. It can ONLY be loaded into the project as a Template Panel, and templated on Neighborhoods.
