Remember when parking lots were just expanses of asphalt with painted lines? Times have certainly changed. Advancements in technology are enhancing the efficiency, safety, and overall user experience of parking lots. Read on to find out how new technology is improving parking lots.
Smart Parking Systems
First on the list is smart parking systems. These systems use sensors to detect vacant parking spots and display the information in real time via an app. For drivers, this is a game-changer. No more circling the lot in search of a space. For businesses, it means more efficient use of parking real estate and higher customer satisfaction. With just a few taps on a smartphone, anyone can find an open space.
Energy-Efficient LED Lighting
Parking lots are adopting increasingly more energy-efficient LED lighting, and for good reason. Compared with traditional lighting solutions, LEDs consume less energy and offer better illumination. This improvement serves a dual purpose: it can significantly lower electricity bills for the property owner and enhance the lot’s safety for visitors by providing better visibility at night.
Advanced Surveillance Systems
Security is paramount when we’re talking about places that often become targets for criminal activity. New-age surveillance systems now come equipped with features like facial recognition, license plate scanning, and even predictive analytics that can flag suspicious behavior. These features deter crime and assist law enforcement agencies in investigations.
Automated Parking
Automated parking is perhaps the most futuristic addition to modern parking lots. Automating parking solutions can transport cars from the entrance to vacant parking spots via mechanical systems. This removes the need for the driver to find a spot and helps manage urban mobility challenges, leading to less wasted space.
Now that you know how new technology is improving parking lots, you can see why many property owners are eager to adopt these advancements. From smart parking systems that guide you to an open spot to the wonders of automated parking, technology is clearly paving the way for safer and more efficient parking solutions.

Noon briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General.
Highlights:
- Trip Announcement
- Occupied Palestinian Territory
- Arab Foreign Ministers
- Solidarity Day with the Palestinian People
- Yemen
- South Sudan
- Civil Society – Peacebuilding
- Senior Personnel Appointment
- Briefings
OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY
Turning to Gaza, you heard the Secretary-General this morning briefed the Security Council on the implementation of Resolution 2712.
He discussed the violence in which more than 1,200 Israelis and more than 14,000 Palestinians have been killed.
He also noted that, in a matter of weeks, a far greater number of children have been killed by Israeli military operations in Gaza than the total number of children killed during any year, by any party to a conflict since he became Secretary-General in 2017.
The nature and scale of death and destruction are characteristic of the use of wide-area explosive weapons in populated areas, with a significant impact on civilians, he said. At the same time, rocket attacks on population centres in Israel by Hamas and other groups have continued – along with allegations of the use of human shields.
The Secretary-General welcomed the arrangement reached by Israel and Hamas – with the assistance of course of Qatar, and Egypt and the United States. We are working to maximize the positive potential of this arrangement on the humanitarian situation in Gaza, he added. But, he said, the level of aid to Palestinians in Gaza remains completely inadequate to meet the huge needs of more than two million people. Although the total amount of fuel allowed into Gaza has increased, it remains utterly insufficient to sustain basic operations.
He also asserted that all hostages must be released immediately and unconditionally. Until then, they must be treated humanely, and the International Committee of the Red Cross needs to be allowed to visit them.
Tor Wennesland, also, the Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, also briefed.
While he did mention the situation in Gaza, he very much focused his remarks on the situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory.
And those remarks were shared with you.
On the humanitarian side, OCHA, the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs] tell us that a Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) aid convoy carrying food, medical supplies, water, and non-food items reached areas north of Wadi Gaza yesterday. However, the bulk of aid distribution during the day took place in areas south of Wadi Gaza, where the vast majority of Palestinians who are internally displaced are located.
But despite an increase in supplies entering Gaza since the start of the pause, the volume of aid entering is insufficient to meet the extensive needs.
YEMEN
The Special Envoy for Yemen, Hans Grundberg, continued his peace efforts this week in the Omani capital, Muscat.
Yesterday, Mr. Grundberg met senior Omani officials and with Mohamed Abdel Salam, Ansar Allah’s Chief Negotiator.
They discussed opportunities to foster cooperation between Yemeni stakeholders to address the current economic issues, to establish a sustainable nationwide ceasefire, and resume an inclusive political process under the auspices of the United Nations.
Also, during his meetings with representatives of diverse Yemeni political parties, the Special Envoy explored ways to progress towards a political solution that reflects the priorities and aspirations of all components of Yemeni society.
Some of you have been asking for an update on the tanker formerly known as the Safer. We are trying to get an update. We will share it with you as soon as we get it.
SOUTH SUDAN
Turning to South Sudan, our humanitarian colleagues yesterday launched the 2024 humanitarian appeal for the country.
They seek $1.8 billion to support 6 million people across South Sudan next year.
There is an estimated 7.1 million men, women and children who will continue to be food insecure during the lean season, and that is from April to July. Some 1.6 million children will remain at critical risk of malnutrition.
The Sudan conflict has had an impact on the South Sudan economy, increasing the prices of food and the number of vulnerable people who need assistance.
The acting Humanitarian Coordinator for South Sudan, Marie-Helene Verney, said that humanitarians will continue to work to ensure that people no longer have to depend on aid, adding that, sadly, we expect climate change and other multiple shocks to continue to drive acute humanitarian needs next year.
And to note that the 2023 Humanitarian Response Plan for South Sudan, calling for $1.7 billion, is only 54 per cent funded with just over $900 million.

Elon Musk visited Israel to tour key locations that have been attacked by Hamas on Monday since the war began on October 7th.
The entrepreneur went to Kfar Aza which was bombarded last month and spoke to top leaders on Monday.
Musk recently faced criticism that his ‘X’ account was riddled with anti-semitism and promoting violence and hatred.
He shared a conspiracy theory which falsely accused Jewish communities of pushing hatred against white people and called it “the actual truth”.
Musk told President Isaac Herzog that “there’s no choice but to kill” troops who continue to murder civilians during the conflict.

ODN Video: FINALLY Free: India Tunnel Collapse Rescue Succeeds at Last
After 17 long days, the men trapped in the Uttarakhand tunnel are finally free.
Earlier today dozens of ambulances arrived, ready and waiting to give the exhausted survivors the urgent medical care they need.
Indian authorities had hoped to get the men out days ago, but plan after plan fell apart. Machines broke down, tunnelling routes became unstable. All the while the situation became more desperate. In the end, it was the original plan, to drill horizontally through the tunnel rubble that was successful.
The final stage of the plan saw the last few metres of rubble cleared by hand. Then rescue workers entered the sealed-off section of the tunnel, to prepare the survivors for evacuation. One by one the men were then removed from the tunnel and loaded into the waiting ambulances.
The conditions in the tunnel have been bleak, and some of the survivors reported falling unwell over a week ago.
Following the disaster, the National Highways Authority of India said it would conduct a safety audit of at least 24 other tunnels. It may take time for authorities to determine what lessons, if any, can be learned from the tunnel collapse and the rescue effort. But for now, the families of the survivors will be content knowing their loved ones are finally coming home.

ODN Video: Child Driving Stolen Forklift Truck in Car Chase with Police
This heavy-duty forklift truck is being driven by a 12-year-old boy.
Police in Michigan responded to a report that somebody was attempting to steal a construction vehicle from a middle school. When they arrived they saw a forklift truck being driven away without any lights on. Officers immediately started a 20mph pursuit of the vehicle.
When the vehicle finally stopped, over an hour later, the driver was identified as a local 12-year-old boy.
While at least ten vehicles were damaged, nobody was injured in the pursuit.
The boy was taken into custody and transferred to a juvenile detention centre.
An investigation revealed the child had found the vehicle’s key in the cab of the unlocked ‘Genie GTH-636 Telehandler’. In a statement Ann Arbor Police said it was a ‘very dangerous situation’, and the 9-ton vehicle could have easily caused serious injuries.

Global Video: Future of wildfires: What will happen to Canada's scorched forests as fires worsen?
After a record-breaking wildfire season in 2023, land double the size of Portugal has been burnt in Canada throughout the year, according to the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre (CIFFC). At 18.5 million hectares (46 million acres), that’s about five per cent of the country’s entire forests.
As the wildfire season slowly winds down with cooling temperatures, what happens to all the land and forests after the fires have been extinguished and nearby evacuated communities returned, especially with such a large swath of area affected?
In the past, fires didn’t come around an area more often than every 30 years, with the lack of trees from recent burns helping regulate the frequency of the fires and resetting the local ecosystem. But now, experts warn that climate change may be breaking that natural cycle.
“Unfortunately, what we're seeing now when we have these extremely intense fires is that, in some places, things burn so hot that they actually incinerate the seeds that are released,” warns ‘Dark Days at Noon: The Future of Fire’ author Edward Struzik. “The southern end of our boreal forest is going to disappear.”

Global Video: How rocks from an asteroid could teach us about our planet
On Sunday, rocks plucked from the asteroid 101955 Bennu will land on our planet, ready to be studied by scientists who hope this sample can shine a light on our planet – and how it came to be.
The sample comes to us seven years after NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft launched from Cape Canaveral, Fla. on a mission to study a near-Earth asteroid and three years after it successfully touched down on Bennu to collect a sample of an asteroid for the first time in the space agency’s history.
Bennu is described as a celestial “rubbish pile” that is made up of material dating back billions of years to when the solar system was forming. And as Alyssa Julie reports, scientists believe its rocks could hold a record of that time period.

Global Video: Maui wildfires: Wind, drought and invasive grass created perfect storm for devastating fires
Punishing winds, a severe drought and invasive grass created the perfect conditions for the devastating fires on Maui that have so far killed at least 67 people, experts say.
The exact cause of the fires is yet to be determined but the National Weather Service had issued warnings for high winds and dry weather as Hurricane Dora brushed south of Hawaii.
Craig Clements, a meteorology professor at San Jose State University, said Maui had already been in a severe drought, putting it at risk for fires. He said the steep mountains overlooking the hard-hit town of Lahain also exacerbated the high wind conditions, sending them into populated areas at high speed.
Alyssa Julie has more on how conditions fanned the flames of the fires.

Global Video: King Charles coronation: Crown jewels, centuries-old traditions and what it all means
The coronation of King Charles III will be the first time a King of England has his coronation televised and only the second-ever British monarch to do so after Queen Elizabeth II in 1953.
It’s a ceremony full of pomp and circumstance, cloaked in mystery and steeped in centuries-old traditions…that comes from a healthy dose of historical pettiness and happenstance.
During the ceremony, the monarch will be presented with the crown jewels, almost all of which were destroyed, altered, or lost to time over the often-tumultuous centuries of British history.
While the crown is the centrepiece of the regalia – what do sceptres, swords and a Scottish stone have to do with being anointed to the British throne?
