ALPRs are cameras that capture still images of passing vehicles, including the license plate number, vehicle make and color, and certain unique, distinguishing details (bumper stickers, roof racks, damage, etc.). This information is then transmitted securely to a database that Edgewater Police Officers can search. The City of Edgewater owns this information and does not sell it to third parties.
The cameras do not identify people, gender, or race/ethnicity. They do not record video and do not use facial recognition technology. They do not record or store driver or vehicle owner information.
