BENEFITS OF USING LICENSE PLATE READERS
What is a License Plate Reader?
A License Plate Reader (LPR) is a camera system that can capture and read the license plate numbers of vehicles. It is commonly used by law enforcement agencies, security officers and even parking enforcement agencies.
LPR’s have been used for decades across the world by law enforcement agencies to help generate leads and closed cases. LPR camera systems take photos of vehicles, extract license plate numbers, make and model data with date, time and GPS. Detections can trigger real-time alerts to improve safety and productivity, but more importantly, can be searched and analyzed to uncover insights that aid investigations and inform future decisions.
5 Benefits of using License Plate Readers:
1. Enhanced Security:
License Plate Readers can help identify vehicles associated with criminal activities, stolen vehicles, or those involved in Amber alerts, providing an additional layer of security to law enforcement agencies and communities.
2. Time-Saving:
LPRs can rapidly identify and track hundreds of vehicles per minute, saving valuable time for officers who would otherwise need to manually check each license plate.
3. Improved Traffic Control:
LPRs can be used to monitor traffic flow, identify congestion hotspots, and detect violations such as illegal parking or driving in bus lanes.
4. Efficient Parking:
LPRs can be utilized to monitor parking lots and garages, allowing for more efficient use of space and reducing the risk of parking violations.
5. Data Collection:
LPRs can collect and analyze data on vehicle movement and patterns, providing valuable insights for transportation planning, urban development, and public safety initiatives.
