# The Quick Stats eleven-x’s Vehicle Counting Solution delivers highly accurate real-time vehicle counts for garages and surface lots. Designed for parking assets where entry and exit lanes are clearly defined, the vehicle counter provides a practical solution that delivers accurate zonal occupancy visibility. ## Up to 98.4% accuracy ## 1-second vehicle separation ## No power required at entry/exit lanes ## Long-life batteries + easy maintenance ## Integrates with eXactpark™ ## What is Vehicle Counting for parking facilities? Vehicle Counting is a method of accurately tracking of vehicle entry, exit, and occupancy levels across multi-level garages and surface lots in real-time. It provides overall facility usage and traffic volume insights without monitoring individual stalls. ## Solution Overview eleven-x’s Vehicle Counting solution uses purpose-built SCS-X wireless sensors installed in entry and exit points, or on levels in a garage. It delivers high accuracy, supports one-second vehicle separation detection and includes smart recalibration options designed to reduce count drift over time. Because sensors operate on long-life batteries, the system does not require access to power near entry or exit points, simplifying installation and reducing infrastructure needs. For increased accuracy and insights, the SCS-X counting sensors can be combined with our SPS-X stall monitoring sensors for a comprehensive occupancy monitoring solution. Easily integrates with [eXactpark](/content/solution/index.html) and other technologies to work alongside other use cases such as parking guidance, compliance and enforcement. ## Why Vehicle Counting Vehicle Counting is ideal for parking garages and surface lots where teams need to understand overall vehicle volumes, entry-exit activity and level counts in terms of facility usage. ### Use cases: - Monitor real-time facility usage and traffic flow - Validate peak demand and operational planning - Support signage, guidance, and occupancy reporting at the facility or level - Utilize vehicle counting sensors with individual stall monitoring ones for more complete insights and accuracy ## How Vehicle Counting Works eleven-x’s Vehicle Counting Solution uses SCS-X wireless sensors installed in separated inbound and outbound lanes at entry and exit points. Sensors can be embedded or surface-mounted depending on site conditions. As vehicles pass through each lane, the system detects and counts entries and exits in real time. ### Key capabilities - High accuracy vehicle counting ( **up to 98.4%**) - Supports **one-second vehicle separation** (even in high-traffic conditions) - Smart recalibration methods to help mitigate drift over time - Designed to handle common Vehicle Counting challenges, including **tailgating, hovering vehicles,** and **higher entry/exit speeds** - Designed for assets with **distinct inbound and outbound lanes** - Uses **eleven-x SCS-X wireless sensors** - **No requirement for access to power** near entry/exit points - **Long battery life** with replaceable batteries on surface-mount sensors - **Single battery design** for simplified maintenance - Easy integration with other technologies ## Get the Vehicle Counting Data Sheet Review specifications, installation options, and performance details for garages and enclosed lots.

No. eleven-x offers **automated or manual recalibration** options designed to mitigate count drift and reduce ongoing maintenance compared to traditional reset approaches. ### How does the system handle tailgating or closely spaced vehicles? It supports **one-second vehicle separation** (approximately one metre), enabling accurate Car Counting during tailgating, hovering, or higher-speed entry and exit conditions. ### How accurate is the Vehicle Counting Solution? Up to **98.4%** counting accuracy. It is designed to maintain accuracy in free-flow traffic, jam flow, and parking scenarios, including closely spaced vehicles or brief stops over the sensor. ### Does the Vehicle Counting Solution require access to power at entry or exit points? No. Sensors run on long-life batteries, so there’s no need for power near entry/exit lanes. ### What mounting options are available for the sensors? Sensors can be **surface-mounted** or **fully in-ground** depending on site conditions. ### Can system performance be monitored remotely? Yes. eXactpark supports remote monitoring and diagnostics, allowing operators to track sensor health, system status, and potential issues. ### Can Vehicle Counting be used alongside stall-level sensors? Yes. Car Counting can be deployed independently or alongside stall-level occupancy sensors in [eXactpark](/content/solution/index.html) for hybrid deployments (zone level and individual stall monitoring). ### Ready to improve garage and enclosed-lot visibility with Vehicle Counting?
