Thanks to the Federal Government’s location information service, it is now possible to see almost in real time how many free truck parking spaces are available at rest areas in Germany.
Since I already use a map structure on my website, I came up with the idea of integrating this data as well – this time as a live map for rest areas.
The map shows available rest stops in Germany and, if reported by the operator, also the current occupancy rate as well as free and occupied parking spaces. This can be helpful for professional drivers when planning tours or looking for a free parking spot.
The data comes from open mobility data of Mobilithek and is updated regularly (every 10 minutes).
You can find the live map here:
