ANPR Plate Read Storage

Secure, searchable number plate data & imagery

Every plate read captured by your ANPR cameras is stored securely with its associated image, timestamp, and camera location — ready for instant retrieval, reporting, or compliance audits.

The challenge

Data without structure is just noise

ANPR cameras generate enormous volumes of plate read data every day. Without a purpose-built storage and retrieval system, that data ends up scattered across local drives, overwritten by retention limits, or simply inaccessible when you need it most.

When an incident occurs, finding the right plate read and its associated image shouldn't require hours of manual searching through fragmented systems.

How RAAPS solves it

Centralised, searchable, compliance-ready

RAAPS stores every plate read in a centralised, searchable database alongside the captured vehicle image. Data is indexed by VRN, timestamp, camera, and site — making retrieval instant whether you're searching for a single vehicle or generating a full site report.

Configurable retention policies ensure data is held for exactly as long as you need it — meeting regulatory requirements while keeping storage efficient. Full access logging ensures you know exactly who accessed what data and when.

Data storage capabilities

Enterprise-grade storage designed for ANPR data at scale.

Plate read & image storage

Every plate read is stored with its associated vehicle image, timestamp, confidence score, camera ID, and site location.

Instant search & retrieval

Search by VRN, date range, camera, or site. Retrieve specific plate reads and their images in seconds, not hours.

Configurable retention

Set retention policies per site or data type. Data is automatically purged after the configured period, ensuring regulatory compliance.

Access logging

Every data access is logged with user identity, timestamp, and action — providing a full audit trail for governance and compliance reviews.

How it works

From camera capture to searchable record in real time.

1

Camera captures plate

ANPR cameras read vehicle number plates and send the data — including the vehicle image — to RAAPS in real time.

2

Data indexed & stored

RAAPS indexes the plate read by VRN, timestamp, camera, and site, then stores the record and image securely with your configured retention policy.

3

Search & retrieve

Authorised users can search and retrieve any stored plate read instantly via the RAAPS dashboard, with full access logging for compliance.
