- Searching for Vehicles: You can search for vehicles using three methods: typing the plate number, using voice command, or using the LPR camera with OCR technology.
- E-Chalking (Virtual Chalking): This feature electronically tracks how long a vehicle has been parked. It creates a time-stamped image of the license plate and the entire car, which can be attached to a violation. The chalked image is saved with the violation unless you delete it.
- Issuing Violations: You can issue violations to a person or a vehicle. The system will perform a secondary check and issue a warning if a plate has a valid permit, but it will still allow you to proceed with the violation at your discretion.
