# Vehicle Sighting Reports: A Powerful Tool for Surveillance

October 20, 2024 4 min read 

Vehicle sighting technology has revolutionized investigations. License plate recognition cameras across the country capture vehicle movements, creating a powerful database for tracking subject locations.

## How It Works

Automated license plate recognition (ALPR) cameras are deployed on tow trucks, parking enforcement vehicles, and fixed locations. They capture images of license plates along with time, date, and GPS coordinates.

## What We Can Provide

Our vehicle sighting reports include:

-   Date and time of each sighting 
-   Location (GPS coordinates and address) 
-   Frequency of sightings at each location 
-   Movement patterns over time 

## Investigative Value

Vehicle sighting data helps investigators:

-   Confirm a subject's current location 
-   Identify home and work addresses 
-   Establish daily routines for surveillance 
-   Track historical movements 

## Legal and Ethical Use

Vehicle sighting data must be used for permissible purposes and in compliance with applicable laws. We maintain strict controls to ensure appropriate use.
