SFMTA upgrades the SFpark online parking map using OpenGeo technology

We wanted to thank our friends (and clients!) at the SFMTA for their upgrade announcement to SFpark. SFpark uses geospatial and sensory technology to collect and distribute real-time parking availability information to drivers. It uses this data to regularly update meter and garage pricing to ensure parking availability, providing for safer and clearer streets. This project is a bold step forward in innovative parking policies and technological integration. The OpenGeo Suite supports SFpark by delivering assets to a robust web mapping application, the primary user interface that we helped build.

This project has gained national attention and put the SFMTA in the spotlight as a forward looking innovator aiming to improve the status quo - values that OpenGeo respects and shares. The SFMTA has been a great client and we look forward to our continued partnership.
