Press Release
March,
2006 - Transport Data Systems has completed the installation and
checkout of 7 Camera Surveillance/Tag Recognition Systems
for the Law Enforcement Division of the Florida Department
of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS), Located
at strategic agricultural inspection stations throughout Northern
Florida, these systems provide the ability to capture images
of license plates and drivers as the vehicles pass through
the inspection station. Data from each of the stations is
fed to a central server at the FDAC AgLaw office in Tallahassee.
The license number is extracted from the image of the license plate and compared to local, state and federal license plate databases in real time to detect vehicles of interest. When a vehicle is detected, data on that vehicle is displayed to the AgLaw officers at the station where the image was captured.
Florida AgLaw personnel have indicated an interest in procuring additional systems for a number of their other inspection sites.
Transport Data Systems designs, develops, produces, and sells automatic vehicle classification, weigh-in-motion and license plate capture products for the fare collection, commercial vehicle operations, parking lot access, and border crossing markets. TDS also provides system, hardware and software design services and installation management services for real time data collection and control systems with particular emphasis on the fare collection market.
