Videalert will show how its hosted platform automates the management and enforcement CAZ and LEZ contraventions.  With real-time identification of the vehicle type (including make, model, colour, gross weight, engine type and CO² emission band) the system can determine whether an offence has been committed and/or whether the correct tariff has been paid for entry into the restricted zone.  The system also provides real-time intelligence to determine the extent of contraventions in any target location.

MEVs are equipped with digital camera technology and a suite of software for rapid deployment in enforcement and monitoring applications.
