Update 1

Release Date: 13.12.2023

Number plate area code (Early Availability Feature)

In addition to the number plate raw text and country code, we now support the number plate area code. Some number plates include an area code associated with a geographical area, such as "W" for Vienna (Austria) or "M" for Munich (Germany).

The following 13 countries are supported

  • Austria

  • Bulgaria

  • Switzerland

  • Czech Republic

  • Germany

  • Greece

  • Croatia

  • Ireland

  • Norway

  • Poland

  • Romania

  • Slovakia

  • Slovenia

How does this work?

  • For supported countries, we detect spaces between letters and parse the raw license plate text according to a predefined format.

  • In the case of countries that are not supported (e.g. Italy), the generated event won't contain an area code.

How to configure?

All use cases based on ANPR are supported, no additional configuration is required.

How can I access the data?

The Data Analytics widgets "Journey Distributions" and "License Plates" allow segmenting by "License Plate Area"

If you are using a custom broker, the event schema has been adjusted to contain the area code.
