Abstract
A method of determining a wait time at a point of interest includes obtaining a current occupancy signal of a parking establishment associated with one or more points of interest, obtaining a historic occupancy signal of the parking establishment, determining, with one or more processors, a predicted wait time for the one or more points of interest associated with the parking establishment based on the current occupancy signal and the historic occupancy signal, and communicating the predicted wait time to a user with a user interface device.
