Additionally, having this data can also be valuable when applying for grants or funding for these or other areas. Being able to provide hard evidence of the number of people and vehicles using the space can demonstrate the value of the investment and help make a stronger case for any additional funding.

Overall, automated counting systems can provide valuable insights into the usage of public spaces, and can help ensure that resources are being used effectively and efficiently.
