Mobile parking enforcement method
First Claim
1. A real-time wireless parking enforcement system, comprising:
- a. a remote parking enforcement system comprising a plurality of parking sensors disposed to gather parking occupancy data and at least one source of parking payment data, wherein said parking occupancy data and parking payment data is communicated to a central server in real-time; and
b. a plurality of wireless mobile platforms operated by a plurality of parking enforcement officers (PEO'"'"'s), wherein said wireless mobile platforms send and receive real-time and continuous said parking occupancy data and parking payment data to and from said central server, wherein bidirectional communication exists between said central server and said wireless mobile platforms, wherein when said PEO enters response information to a potential violation to said wireless mobile platform, said bidirectional communication updates said status of said potential violation to all said wireless platforms in real-time, wherein said real-time continuous information is used to reduce parking enforcement redundancies by said PEO'"'"'s.

Abstract
A real-time wireless parking enforcement system is provided that includes a remote parking enforcement system having a plurality of parking sensors disposed to gather parking occupancy data and at least one source of parking payment data, where the parking occupancy data and parking payment data is communicated to a central server in real-time, and a plurality of wireless mobile platforms are operated by a plurality of parking enforcement officers (PEO'"'"'s). The wireless mobile platforms send and receive real-time and continuous parking occupancy data and parking payment data to and from the central server, where bidirectional communication exists between the central server and the wireless mobile platforms. When the PEO enters response information to a potential violation to the wireless mobile platform, the bidirectional communication updates the status of the potential violation to all the wireless platforms in real-time, where the information is used to reduce enforcement redundancies by the PEO'"'"'s.
