I got this link from a US Marshal who taught a fugitive tracking class recently. It is very impressive. The functionality is limited to 15 free searches a week for each agency's ORI. Of course you can buy unlimited searches and deeper search functionality and real time alerts, but for most of us I think the free stuff will suffice. They not only collect data from law enforcement agencies that use ALPR systems, but from private repo companies as well. One of the folks from another area agency just signed up today and found her personal vehicle captured. It must have been a repo company because our area doesn't use ALPR technology. You input the tag and it will give you a picture of the car, the date and time it was spotted and pinpoint where the photo was taken on Google Maps. Could be extremely useful in fugitive tracking, among other things.

FWIW, I've tried it before and found it to be crap.
There were no reads at all from my area (because my area doesn't use that vendor for LPR systems),
and every time you searched for something, it played a video advertising something. I got the impression it was nothing but a front for getting you to buy the "next level".Be dangerous, and unpredictable... and make a lot of noise. - John Bush, Anthrax

I've used it a few times and recently caught an ADW (w/ firearm) suspect based on the photographs and maps that are generated from this site. We were able to get a general location of where the suspect parked his vehicle and other leads on where he might be. Granted, we field plenty of cars in LA with LPR systems, so their is plenty of data on a lot of cars.
I like Free things that work.Yes I'm a LEO... but I do no care enough to go through the trouble of changing the screen name.... sorry
