ANPR - What does ANPR stand for?

ANPR stands for Automatic Number Plate Recognition.

"ANPR is a technology that automatically reads vehicle registration marks (VRMs), allowing these details to be compared against database records.

An ANPR camera takes an image of a vehicle number plate; the image is passed to a reader, which locates the VRM and reads the letters and characters so that they can be identified using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software. An image of the view of the number plate and/or overview camera is then saved and checked against the database." (source)

ANPR may also be used for:

Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
Advance Notice of Public Rulemaking
Association of National Park Rangers
Atlantic Networks for Prevention Research
