Major ANPR camera contract for Siemens ITS

Following more than seven months of trials, Austrian system integration company 7iD has placed an order with Siemens ITS for 175 Sicore automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras. The cameras will be implemented by an international logistics operating company to provide correlated ANPR and RFID data of its approaching vehicles, with the aim of reducing wait times for drivers upon arrival at their logistics facilities before they are directed to their waiting/loading/unloading bay.
