Westfield rolls out Australian-first ‘Find My Car’ feature

Shoppers heading to Westfield’s Bondi Junction complex can now use the Westfield iPhone app to find their cars, after the company last week took the wraps off a new tool that uses high resolution imagery to find cars based on their license plates.

Users type in their car license plate, before the app makes use of Westfield’s high-resolution ‘Park Assist’ photograph system — a part of Westfield’s wider Parking Guidance System that shows in real-time car parks that are available — to locate the parking bay that the car is in.

The iPhone app then presents the shopper a map directing them from their current position to their cars parking bay.

Westfield says it spent more than 3 months working on the solution with Australian partner Intunity, who built the solution on behalf of the shopping centre giant.
In a statement, the company said it’s looking at expanding the tool to its other centres across the country, but for now will only offer it at Bondi Junction.
