Level Crossing Surveillance<br />

Automatic Number Plate Recognition<br />

Fixed & Redeployable Systems<br />

<strong>Petards</strong> range of ANPR systems can be used in both fixed<br />

and mobile applications.<br />

<strong>Petards</strong> Hawk Plus cameras are currently utilised by dozens<br />

of mobile ANPR police units and in British Transport Police<br />

mobile vehicle applications (below).<br />

Working with our partner Furtronics, the mobile solution<br />

has been a great success in capturing and preventing<br />

dangerous driving at level crossings.<br />

In it’s first week of operation the project caught 86 people<br />

breaking the law.<br />

<strong>Petards</strong> ANPR systems are also avaible as fixed site and<br />

redeployable applications capable of protecting track side<br />

properties as well as recording any incident of dangerous<br />

driving at crossings.<br />

<strong>Petards</strong> have been leaders in ANPR (Automatic<br />

Number Plate Recognition) camera technology for<br />

almost a decade with our advanced systems being<br />

utilised by police forces and private companies in<br />

Europe, the Middle East and Australasia.<br />

Sent via 3G or GPS to police or train operating companies,<br />

the whole process from level crossing misuse to receipt of<br />

data by police/head office can take just 15 seconds.<br />

Within the transport sector our systems have been<br />

shaped to help solve security and logistical issues.<br />

Use of ANPR on Level Crossings<br />

Recent data from the UK indicated that there over 3000<br />

incidents of level crossing misuse in the UK each year, with<br />

many thousands more risking there own lives and those of<br />

train passengers without being recorded.<br />

<strong>Petards</strong> ANPR solutions can allow level crossings to be<br />

monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days per year.<br />

The solution involves an alert being activated if any<br />

vehicle passes over the crossing illegally. <strong>Petards</strong> ANPR<br />

cameras are then able to record the number plate and<br />

colour overview image of the offence.<br />

Details can then be automatically obtained from the DVLA<br />

(or specific country equivalent) and relevant action taken.<br />
