545 Genetec has released AutoVu 4.3, the newest version of its IP license plate recognition solution which now includes features such as real-time alarming and email notification, colour, sound and priority assignment to hotlists, covert hit notification, wildcard hotlists, permit sharing and long-term overtime.

In law enforcement applications, AutoVu's real-time alarming and email notification quickly informs assigned recipients of matched license plates or hits. Users can assign different priorities to hotlists. Each priority can be configured with a different colour and alarm tone, so that officers can be alerted to hits both visually and audibly, to identify the type of hit and its importance.

AutoVu now allows the creation of a wildcard hotlist database; records in that database only include partial license plate numbers, very useful in situations where witnesses did not see or cannot remember a complete license plate number.

In parking enforcement, permit sharing benefits users who have multiple vehicles registered under the same permit. AutoVu can now detect and notify a parking officer when two vehicles with the same permit have been seen in an area within a configured timeframe. In addition, the long-term overtime feature allows parking officers to identify vehicles that have been parked at the same location for a period of one to five days, enabling them to find abandoned vehicles.

    The Texas Transportation Institute's Jerry Ullman talks about the state of the art in work zone safety in the US. Work zones are places where, perhaps more than anywhere else on the road network, mobility and safety are strongly linked. Historically, field crews and contractors wanted vehicles in work zones to be moving as slowly as possible, assuming that made conditions the safest for work crews. We are though starting to see a shift in such thinking with the realisation that excessive delays or slow-down

    Ralf Baron, Thomas Kuruvilla, Morsi Berguiga, Michael Zintel, Joseph Salem and Mario Kerbage from Arthur D. Little explain why there is much to be learned from the Middle East about the rapid evolution of transport systems. The rapid urbanisation across the globe is leading to mobility challenges as cities struggle to ensure their populations can move around freely using both public and private transport. Solving these issues is critical to ensuring that cities thrive and attract the investment and

    July 16, 2012
    Dave Marples of Technolution argues that the continuing development of tolling-specific onboard equipment is leading us up a blind alley. We should, he says, be looking to realise universal platforms with universal application. The near-future automobile contains information systems of a sophistication to rival a jet airliner of only a few years ago, yet is 'piloted' by a considerably less well-trained individual of highly variable mental and physical capacity, and operated in a hostile, unpredictable and p

Technology that integrates with the Australian-originated Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System (SCATS) is driving bus signal priority and performance analysis initiatives on both sides of the world; in its homeland, with a major deployment in 2015, and in the capital of the Republic of Ireland.
