ANPR Project Mechelen

The city of Mechelen has implemented an ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) system with over 20 cameras. With this new installation the police hopes to reduce crime and make Mechelen more secure. The system registers every car that enters or leaves the city: over 370.000 plates a day - about 8.000.000 plates every month - will be monitored this way. The cameras are synchronized with a stolen vehicle database and an insurance database. So when a flagged car enters Mechelen, the police gets notified. This project is made possible thanks to wireless connections to each of these cameras. We established a high performance network, so every ANPR camera can send its data to the main servers.
