Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) systems function to automatically capture an image of the vehicle’s license plate, transform that image into alphanumeric characters using optical character recognition, compare the plate number acquired to one or more databases of vehicles of interest to law enforcement, and to alert the officer when a vehicle of interest has been observed. ALPR technology has become an industry standard that has proven to be an effective and efficient way for law enforcement to detect, solve, prevent, and deter crime. ALPR data can help detectives develop and pursue leads in criminal investigations by assisting in locating suspects, witnesses, and victims by identifying vehicles in the vicinity at the time of the crime. ALPR systems assist police departments with recovering stolen vehicles, finding missing persons, securing large public venues such as sporting events and concerts, aiding homeland security, and tracking down suspects. This paper is aimed at sharing information, resources, and best practices associated with ALPR in law enforcement.
