Abstract

See full text

In an approach to manage parking facility occupancy, a computing device retrieves a customer identification for a customer entering a parking facility and determines whether a customer profile is available for the customer. Upon determining the customer profile is available, the computing device retrieves the customer profile from a database. Additionally, the method includes the computing device determining, based, at least in part, on the customer profile, a customer spending level for the customer. Furthermore, the computing device determines whether an alert is received, the alert indicating a parking facility occupancy level is predicted to attain an alert threshold level. In response to determining the alert is received, the computing device determines a retail incentive for the customer, based, in part, on the customer spending level.
