Smart Parking Occupancy Tracking

This dataset provides detailed, timestamped occupancy records for smart parking facilities, including space-level usage, sensor status, pricing, and vehicle type. It enables facility managers and smart city planners to optimize operations, forecast demand, and analyze peak usage patterns for improved space allocation and dynamic pricing. The comprehensive structure supports both real-time monitoring and historical trend analysis.

Behind this dataset

Same schema. As many rows as you need.

These 120 rows came out of a blueprint — 19 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.

Rules it was built with
  • Each row represents an hourly observation for a distinct sensor-enabled parking zone.
  • Occupancy value reflects the percentage of spaces occupied (0-100%) at the recorded hour.
  • Include sensor reliability status (active/fault/maintenance) for each observation.
  • Capture environmental factors: weather (clear, rain, snow), event proximity (yes/no), and local traffic congestion (low/medium/high).
  • Mark sensors reporting persistent faults (>2 hours) for maintenance flag.
