User-contributed data
ParkPie maintains a database of parking sign images and restriction data contributed voluntarily by app users. Contributions are used to supplement and verify publicly available datasets. Aggregated and anonymised user session data is used to generate parking availability estimates and cannot be used to identify individual users.
