Parking and transit around the venue, for the guest guide
Parking and transit near the venue, as a ready getting-there guide.
What it does
Before each event: parking lots, bus, train and subway stations within 1 km of the venue, nearest first, on a map and in a short getting-there guide by xMap AI for the event page.
In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, in Melbourne, find stadiums, event venues and convention centers in the area, find parking lots, train stations and 2 more nearby, write a report with xMap AI, then show them on a map and email the list to you.
Why it is useful
Most event complaints are about getting there. A clear guide with the nearest stations and parking prevents them.
Who it is for
Events, venues & exhibitions. Venues, event organisers, exhibition companies and wedding planners filling dates, booking suppliers and keeping guests safe. Every use case for events & venues

The time it saves
Monthly on the 1st at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 45 minutes each time, so it saves about 1 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 7 blocks.
