My Two Truths and a Lie

By Casey Jones, CAPP

My two truths and a lie:

• I became submarine and airborne qualified in the same summer.
• I am the 1975 U10 Mutton Busting Champion for Gallatin County, MT.
• I was once featured on the Travel Channel.

The last one is true and quite an experience. I got to share some of the cool and up-and-coming technology for parking and mobility. That was over 10 years ago now, and some of the solutions have materialized (robotic parking), while others have not (3D holographic car locators).

Throughout our industry’s history, we’ve relied on technology and innovation to make the movement of people and goods more resource-efficient, convenient, safe, secure, and equitable.  You’ll recognize this as the definition of Smart Transportation, and you can download IPMI’s recent publication, Smart Transportation for Parking and Mobility Practitioners: Concepts, Applications and Case Studies to learn more.  This practical guide defines smart transportation and uses real-world and case studies to illustrate how technology can be used to achieve our most important parking and mobility management goals.
