Parking Violation Detection Configuration

Application Guide

For a complete walkthrough with code examples, see the Vehicle Detection & Parking Management application guide.

GetSmartPvdConfig

Retrieves illegal parking / parking violation detection (PVD) configuration. PVD triggers an alarm when a vehicle parks in a prohibited zone for longer than a configured time threshold.

FieldValue
Endpoint/GetSmartPvdConfig[/channelId]
MethodPOST or GET
ProductsIPC
Channel IDOptional (default 1)

Response

The response returns the parking violation detection configuration in the standard <config> XML wrapper, including the no-parking zone, dwell time threshold, and detection sensitivity. Query this endpoint against your camera to see the full XML structure for your firmware version.

Notes

  • PVD works similarly to loitering detection but is specifically designed for vehicles in no-parking zones.
  • The detection zone defines the prohibited parking area — a vehicle must remain stationary in the zone beyond the time threshold to trigger an alarm.
  • The corresponding Set command is SetSmartPvdConfig using the same XML structure returned by the Get command.
  • Parking violation webhook events use smartType value PVD (IPC format).
