Automatic license plate recognition for law enforcement
Jump to
Reduce crime, identify wanted vehicles, and improve how you serve the community
The AutoVu™ automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) system for law enforcement helps your agency identify wanted vehicles, apprehend suspects, and close cases faster. Easily unify fixed and mobile ALPR cameras with other systems using one solution, while keeping privacy and cybersecurity in check. This ensures your law enforcement officers can speed up response and investigations and spend more time building community trust.
Get ahead of these challenges
Relying on chance to find suspects
Identifying wanted vehicles by randomly checking license plate numbers is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Your law enforcement officers could spend weeks trying to track down suspects or vehicles that could be long gone. You need advanced tools to work more efficiently and deliver results.
Running an investigation without access to information
During an investigation, you might have a partial license plate number or vehicle description. That’s not always helpful if you don’t have a way to quickly find the car or the driver. Getting access to real-time alerts and historical data on vehicle whereabouts can increase your clearance rates while keeping everyone safe.
Technology that limits community partnerships
More law enforcement agencies are partnering with communities to strengthen their crime-fighting capabilities. This requires higher levels of transparency, a commitment to privacy, and flexible technology. Can the ALPR technology you invest in foster greater collaboration and trust within our community? Can you connect various systems to support the efforts of a real-time crime center?
Investing in solutions that aren’t progressive slows you down
Your law enforcement officers are busy keeping your community safe. That’s why spending time dealing with system failures, license plate misreads, or extra training can be frustrating. To get the most value from an ALPR investment, you need a high-performance and user-friendly solution that your officers can rely on.
Handling privacy and cybersecurity shouldn’t feel like a chore
Today’s privacy and cybersecurity regulations are evolving at a quick pace. To keep up with the latest threats, your team needs to ensure that your systems, and how you use them, are complying with government regulations. Invest in a solution that gives you the tools to restrict access to information, securely manage evidence, and protect citizens’ privacy.
“For now, the Danish Police collect several hundred thousand plates a day [using the Security Center AutoVu ALPR system], and the number is increasing. The system has a 98 percent reading rate, so there are very few cars that cannot be caught with the system.”

Maximize efficiency and coverage with one ALPR solution
Using the AutoVu ALPR system, your law enforcement officers can quickly find wanted vehicles or suspects, locate amber or silver alerts, and get suspended drivers off the road. The AutoVu system compares license plates reads with those listed on national crime databases and alerts your officers when there’s a match. Having ALPR cameras on both patrol vehicles and roadways helps you enhance coverage and keep your community safer.
Increase clearance rates using forensic ALPR data
Whether you’re looking for a stolen car or tracking a suspect, the AutoVu ALPR system can help. From the patrol car or precinct, you can easily filter searches using partial or full plate numbers, the vehicle’s make, model, or color, and even date, time, and location. The system can also alert you to real-time hits of specific plate numbers, ensuring you gather more evidence and apprehend suspects faster.
Enhance collaboration in your community with a unified solution
With the AutoVu solution, you can unify ALPR data with video, analytics, and other critical systems within the Genetec Security Center platform. Take things further by linking public and private systems within your real-time crime center and using core modules to better manage evidence or handle emergencies. All of this helps you break down siloes and fuel collaboration between departments, decision-makers, and the broader community.
Get results with highly accurate and intuitive ALPR system
The AutoVu system has a 98% accuracy rate on license plate reads. Even in a busy environment or bad storm, the cameras decipher all license plates in the field of view and read embossed lettering, digital plates, and various plate designs. Touch-enabled functions, dynamic maps, and other intuitive features make the AutoVu system easy to learn and use. And over time, you’ll always have access to the latest ALPR features.
Stay compliant with privacy and cybersecurity regulations
Police departments use ALPR to fight crime, not to monitor drivers in general. Using AutoVu, you can program the system to automatically delete data that is unrelated to investigations to protect individuals’ privacy. You can also define which users can access the system and what they can see or do. Other built-in cybersecurity features such as password protection, encrypted communications, and hardening tools help you comply with federal regulations.
Danish Police
The Danish Police installed 48 mobile and 24 fixed AutoVu ALPR cameras to fight crime and fraud. After countless success stories, they’re now investing in more devices.
