This is a different point. Surveillance pricing isn't used in parking, which is the point made by GP.
On the parking enforcement side of things: maybe you could argue that it's surveillance? It depends on what you mean by surveillance, a term that I think is easily overloaded so as to conflate different things. Depending on the definition, that's also how retailers detect and mitigate shoplifting, and it's also how the barista knows that I'm ready to place an order, and myriad other things that could potentially qualify as "surveillance".
Different fees for different products. Parking outside the stadium before a football game is a much more valuable product than parking at 1pm at the edge of town.
They won't implement surveillance pricing for parking fees, if that's what you meant to say.
Isn't the entire system of parking enforcement based on surveillance?

Everyone still pays the same price.
