Dataset of entry/exit times of vehicles in/out of a parking lot

Question

I am doing a study of traffic control and want to find a dataset of entries and exits of a garage or parking lot.

Then I can calculate the staying time of any car in garage or parking lot.

Example:

07:48 Vehicle 4569823 enters
07:54 Vehicle 0269564 enters
09:32 Vehicle 9643153 enters
11:59 Vehicle 4569823 exits
12:08 Vehicle 0269564 exits
12:55 Vehicle 4569823 enters
13:02 Vehicle 0269564 enters
18:03 Vehicle 0269564 exits
18:12 Vehicle 4569823 exits
20:18 Vehicle 9643153 exits

Answer 1

If the lot of interest is a paid lot, then you might be able to get this information from the owner.

Information from a government run lot might be possible with a Fredom of Information Act, FOIA, request.

Answer 2

You can query Open Street Map for amenities such as parking or garage (some of them has theirs "parking_entrance" and "parking_exit") through Overpass API:

[out:csv(::id,::type,"name")];
area[name="Berlin"]->.a;
( node(area.a)[amenity=parking_entrance];
 way(area.a)[amenity=parking_entrance];
 rel(area.a)[amenity=parking_entrance]; );
out;
