Abstract: The present disclosure relates to identifying vehicles using wireless device identifiers. In accordance with aspects of the present disclosure, a system for identifying vehicles in a parking structure includes a camera configured to capture images of an area in the parking structure where the camera captures an image containing one or more vehicle(s), a detector configured to scan for wireless device identifiers in the area, and a processing system including an electronic storage. The processing system is configured to execute instructions to access the image containing the vehicle(s) in the area and access one or more wireless device identifier(s) scanned by the detector in the area, process the image containing the vehicle(s) to extract one or more license plate identifier(s) corresponding to the vehicle(s), and store in the electronic storage at least one record associating the license plate identifier(s) with the wireless device identifier(s).

Abstract: To manage a plurality of parking spaces, one or more images are acquired, with each parking space appearing in at least one image. Periodically acquired images of occupancy and identity are used in directing a customer to a parked vehicle. Periodically acquired mages of just occupancy are used in controlling respective environmental aspects, such as illumination and ventilation, of the parking spaces. For these purposes, the images are classified automatically as “vacant” or “occupied”, and are displayed along with their classifications so that the classifications can be corrected manually.
