Truck parking information systems designed as part of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) SmartPark and Commercial Vehicle Information Systems and Networks (CVISN) Programs were estimated to cost $391,000 or more per site with $5,500 expended annually for routine O&M (2015).

These systems used entrance/exit scanners and required manual surveillance of parking areas using static surveillance cameras to verify parking availability information posted on a wide-area network of DMS units.
