DI-CAPE (Central Application for Pattern Evaluation) is a management software for storage, monitoring and control of several NPR devices. The application can be started from any browser-based PC user interface, without long and involved installation procedures. All information of the system, which is divided onto several devices, are clearly displayed. If necessary, the operator can intervene. The simultaneous display of several lanes, monitored by different NPRs, gives the operator an ideal overview of all vehicle movements.  

The set-up and maintenance of the system is also conveniently carried out via the central system server. Lists of number plates (employees, sought-after vehicles etc.) can be imported or maintained manually via user interfaces. Every change is automatically stored on all NPR devices respectively. The number plates detected by the individual NPR devices are processed locally and simultaneously stored in the central evaluation database.

Should the network not be available, the system still remains mostly functional. Every NPR autonomously continues analysing the flow of traffic and locally controls, for example, entry gates. After the network connection has been restored, all data are automatically updated and synchronised.

Further options are a detailed user administration, automatic notifications in case parking times are violated and versatile manual evaluations of the recognised number plates, such as violation of speed limits, exceeding of travel times and multiple detection of vehicles.
