Introduction
A modern parking system is made up of dozens of interconnected components — from power and network infrastructure to lane configuration, payments, and long-term support. This glossary breaks down every part of a TPS parking project into plain-English explainer guides, so operators, developers, and facility managers can understand exactly what's involved before, during, and after installation.
