OttoView by Otto Connect
Just in time for peak beach season, Otto Connect, Inc. has launched a new feature designed to make parking along the coast easier and less stressful for visitors and residents alike. “OttoView by Otto Connect”, is part of the SurfCAST parking system and allows users to check parking availability in real time before heading to the beach. The feature is now available in Holden Beach. For many drivers, finding parking during busy summer weekends can be one of the most frustrating parts of a beach trip. OttoView aims to reduce congestion and save time by showing which lots have open spaces—and which do not—before users arrive. “Instead of circling for a spot, people can now see their options ahead of time and go directly to available parking,” Jim Varner (CEO) said in a statement.
Know before you go:
OttoView can be accessed through the SurfCAST website (https://park.surfcast.ottoconnect.us/), the QRcode link, and will be available soon via mobile app update (“SurfCAST by Otto”) making it easy for visitors to plan from home or on the go.
What OttoView Shows:
• A map of the area and locations of all parking lots
• Real-time parking availability by location
• Estimated availability based on permit turnover
• Directions to nearby parking areas
• Filters for amenities such as restrooms, handicap spaces, and LSV parking
OttoView is fully integrated into the SurfCAST system and is available at no additional cost.
