Germany’s parking industry is evolving at speed, with smart parking systems, ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition), and IoT-powered solutions becoming the backbone of efficient operations. But for all the innovation, there’s one issue that continues to cause headaches for operators, technology providers, and municipalities alike. Connectivity.
From busy underground car parks in Berlin to rural Park & Ride facilities in Bavaria, staying connected is far from guaranteed. And without a stable data connection, even the most advanced parking technology can grind to a halt.
The Connectivity Challenge
Germany’s diverse geography poses unique network coverage issues. Urban areas may have dense 4G and 5G coverage, but underground facilities, concrete structures, and multi-level car parks can create dead zones. Meanwhile, rural parking locations and roadside ANPR installations may experience inconsistent signal strength from one provider to another.
For parking operators, this can lead to:
- Missed ANPR reads and enforcement delays
- Real-time payment system failures
- Downtime for EV charging stations integrated into parking facilities
- Increased operational costs due to manual intervention
How Go2Sim Keeps Parking Systems Online. Anywhere in Germany
At Go2Sim, we know that every second of uptime counts in the parking industry. That’s why our multi-network IoT Data SIMs are designed to keep you connected in even the most challenging environments.
