OpenALPR Technology, a leading provider of automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) software, updates its Cloud Stream service by introducing new features which augment license plate recognition and make third party integrations easier.

?OpenALPR continues to innovate and disrupt the status quo in surveillance industry with leading edge ALPR technology. The addition of automatic recognition of vehicle color, make and body type to our Cloud Stream plans adds significant forensic value to law enforcement?, according to Steve Lewis, Director of Business Development for OpenALPR Technology, Inc.

?Cloud Stream users can not only conduct a Search on license plate characters (complete or partial), but now on the vehicle?s color, make and body type attributes. All Cloud Stream plans will include the new feature enhancements, even OpenALPR?s free plan?, stated Lewis.

OpenALPR has also added Webhooks to Cloud Stream which will make integrating with third party applications and web services easier. Users can send pre-defined alerts and plate group results to a URL from the Cloud Stream user interface. The Webhooks feature is available for Basic and Professional Cloud Stream users.

The Forensic Plate Finder is a simple Windows utility that will recognize license plates from video files and still images to aid investigations. This utility enables law enforcement to deploy battery powered cameras (e.g. trail cameras) or cameras where no internet connectivity is available and recognize plates from the recordings. Use cases include: remote power substations, oil and gas fields, cell tower facilities, water treatment plans, and temporary sting operations to name a few. The Forensic Plate Finder outputs results to a .CSV, text and JSON file for data manipulation.

OpenALPR is offering free 14-day trails of all Cloud Stream plans and the Forensic Plate Finder.
