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 />
