ANPR-Cloud Platform
ANPR-Cloud is a cloud-based Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR/LPR) platform that ingests vehicle detection data from connected cameras and transforms it into actionable intelligence.
The platform enables security teams, control rooms, and investigators to monitor vehicle activity in real-time, analyse movement patterns, and respond to vehicles of interest across multiple locations.
ANPR-Cloud provides centralized visibility of detections, analytics, and alerting capabilities in a secure cloud environment.
1. Overview
ANPR-Cloud is designed to bridge the gap between raw camera detections and operational intelligence.
Core capabilities include:
- Real-time vehicle detection monitoring
- Centralized multi-site visibility
- Vehicle movement analytics and pattern detection
- Image capture and evidence storage
- Hotlist and alerting capabilities
- Integration into intelligence platforms such as SecureMIND
The platform supports multiple plate formats and integrates directly with LPR/ANPR cameras.
2. How ANPR-Cloud Works
ANPR systems use cameras to detect and extract license plate data from vehicles.
ANPR-Cloud extends this by providing cloud-based ingestion, storage, analytics, and visualization.
System Flow
Process Steps
- Cameras detect vehicle plates
- Detection is sent via HTTP POST/API/FTP
- ANPR-Cloud stores images and metadata
- Data is analysed for patterns and matches
- Alerts are triggered for flagged vehicles
- Users access insights via dashboard
