The Intelligent Transportation Society of America (ITS America) recognized Deeplocal’s ParkPGH app as the best in the nation. ParkPGH is the city’s first “smart” parking solution and the nation’s first predictive parking app to direct drivers to available parking spots, helping to reduce congestion and delays in downtown Pittsburgh.

ParkPGH calculates the number of parking spaces available in Cultural District garages every 30 seconds and delivers available locations to drivers through an iPhone application, a traditional website, a mobile website, text messaging, and through a call-in telephone service. Unlike parking apps available in other urban areas that rely only on real-time information, the Park PGH also includes a predictive parking component.  The predictive parking algorithm uses historical parking trends and current events to predict parking minutes to hours in the future.
