The need for accurate data
Bordeaux Métropole needed precise data to answer key questions on 3 subjects: car sharing areas, delivery areas and IRVE terminals. Among the questions asked was whether the use of these infrastructures was appropriate.
Solution: Cocoparks real-time curb management solution
Cocoparks deployed its curb management solution in just a few weeks. The solution took the form of a real-time observatory covering multiple areas of Bordeaux Métropoles. The metrics reported included occupancy rates, parking times, detailed parking chronograms, infringement rates etc… and many more.
Carpooling areas
A major investment had been made in the metropolis’ car-sharing areas. Once created, it was very difficult to know whether the areas were being used for carpooling. Cocoparks’ analytical strike force has enabled us to respond to this challenge, and in particular to understand daytime and night-time usage, by objectivizing usage in great detail.
Exceptional efficiency
In the example below, a single sensor was used to monitor all 41 spaces in the car-sharing area.

Delivery areas
For delivery areas, the aim was to understand whether they were used for deliveries or for other purposes. Cocoparks’ ability to distinguish between different types of vehicle has enabled us to fully answer these questions. In this case, many bus lane blockages were directly linked to problems with the management of delivery areas.
94,000 deliveries take place every day in Bordeaux!

IRVE terminals
At charging stations for electric vehicles, the aim was to identify vehicles parked but not plugged in – a real scourge for the development of electric mobility.
An observatory in just a few weeks: ultra-light and fast installation
Cocoparks technology is unique and frugal. Cocoparks has an AI that consumes very little energy. This enabled him to build the observatory exclusively with solar panel-powered sensors, drastically reducing installation costs. These devices have proven to be 20 to 30 times more effective than other types of parking sensors. Overall, the Cocoparks observatory costs a fraction of the cost of a study carried out by a mobility or parking consultancy.
