Educational Building Segment Characteristics

Volume Profile Semester-based patterns, event peaks, mixed duration
Revenue Model Semester permits, daily rates, event parking
Integration Needs Student information systems, campus card, event calendars
Key Challenges Permit enforcement, event overflow, multi-lot management

Educational Building Campus Complexity Signals

Multi-lot governance Campuses commonly require consistent policies across multiple parking areas, zones, and time rules — not a single entry point.
Many user groups Students, faculty, staff, visitors, contractors, and event attendees require distinct entitlements, exceptions, and time windows.
Event peaks Graduations, open days, sports, and conferences create short-term peaks requiring temporary policies and overflow handling across parking lots.
Auditability & disputes High user volume increases enforcement cases and appeals; a campus solution requires logs, reporting, and evidence support.

Educational Building Required Capabilities

Permit & entitlement management Semester permits, zone rights, quotas, allocation rules, role-based policies, and administrative workflows.
Identity & credentialing Plate-based identity (LPR) and optional IDs/mobile credentials as concepts; eligibility is controlled by policy.
Access orchestration Entry/exit decisioning across multiple access points, exception handling, and operational continuity (only if claimed and evidenced).
Visitor & contractor workflows Pre-registration, approvals, time windows, temporary entitlements, and policy-driven visitor rules.
Event & peak operations Temporary rule sets, overflow handling, prebooking, and operational guidance options for peak arrivals.
Enforcement support Violation workflows, evidence support, dispute/appeal handling, and policy transparency.
Integrations Integration categories such as student information systems, campus card, event calendars, and payment systems.
Reporting & auditability Logs, reporting, audit trails, and administrative analytics for planning and compliance.

Educational Building Parking - Distinction

Not campus operations. SKIDATA manages parking access and parking workflows; campus transit, shuttles, and facilities are separate systems.
Not student services. Parking systems are distinct from enrollment, housing, and academic administration, even if integrations exist.
Not “a couple of LPR cameras + an app.” A campus parking solution is defined by multi-lot policy governance, semester/event rule sets, user group entitlements, enforcement support, and auditability across a large population.
