Chatswood Chase is a shopping centre in Sydney’s North Shore which has a nine level car park. Holman Engineering supplied and installed a way finding system to advise shoppers of the number of spaces available on each of the levels of the car park. The Holman system has achieved accuracy in vehicle movements of 0.1%. The system efficiently directs traffic to the most readily accessible locations reducing emissions, and maximizing utility of available parking lots.

The system consists of over 60 electronics signs, 50 loops detectors which monitor car movements through the 9 levels of the carpark. The data is collected using Holman Engineering’s specifically developed Node points. These Nodes allow both the collection of data and the driving of the electronic signs. The system logs and stores data locally with the data being collated on a centralised database which allows in depth analysis. This centralised control system allows users to see what occupancy and car movement levels there have been throughout the carpark, on an overhead photo of the venue. The system can be accessed remotely from Holman Engineering’s offices to carry out software maintenance and to monitor system performance.
