Hoboken to Fight Parking Woes with RFID
If somebody is a fan of legendarylinks singer Frank Sinatara, then they must be knowing about Hoboken, the place to which he belonged. The same city is going ga-ga over RFID and is making use of Symbol Technologies RFID readers for curbing illegal on street parking permits. The city is already facing parking woes with around 40,000 residents crammed into one square mile borders and is overrun with cars. This would put an end to parking officers' woes of visually inspecting each car's parking sticker as some officers complained that it was quite difficult to distinguish between real and fake permits and read through tinted windows.

Stickers embedded with RFID information would be issued to residents and officers would be making use of Symbol reader for verifying them. A database linked to the reader would be updated daily with current parking information and residents would be able to renew their permits online.

This could serve as an example for parking management in cities suffering from similar problem.
