Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) is a crucial tool for controlling access, crime and threat detection across public spaces and heritage sites.
Over 100 UK local authorities trust Ocular to keep their towns and cities safe.
Our strong relationship with leading technology providers combined with our experience converging physical security onto existing IT networks with no system downtime, is why so many local authorities in the UK trust us to keep their towns and cities operating smoothly
With such a strong and extensive heritage, Ocular leverages existing legacy infrastructure whilst enabling migration to newer, IP-based solutions to deliver solutions that improve public surveillance, reduce operating budgets and keep the public safe.
Our specialism in complex system integration involves partnering with multiple stakeholder groups and guaranteeing seamless operation during upgrades and installations. Secure access, third party alarm monitoring, video analytics and CCTV management, are just some of the solutions that we offer to local authority customers.
Our extensive footprint across local authorities, law enforcement and public transport, places Ocular in a unique position to support multi-agency collaboration to identify and investigate incidents through secure data sharing and improved situational awareness.
Ocular’s CCTV integration expertise in public space applications is regularly leveraged to support emergency services teams. Whether designing, networking and integrating covert/overt systems and technologies as permanent, portable (including body-worn cameras and radio systems) or vehicle-mounted solutions, Ocular’s project management, security and IT accreditations and certifications mean we are ideally placed to protect and support organisations dedicated to public safety, security and health.
Urban road safety, particularly relating to traffic monitoring and management is also a significant area of work for Ocular. We are a leader in the design and delivery of ANPR and Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM) systems, working directly with local authorities to develop their technology strategies.
Ocular is trusted to work on projects for some of our nation’s most prestigious sites.
From safeguarding historically significant architectural features to securing internal furnishings and art rich in cultural (and financial) value, Ocular protects our built heritage and the assets they contain. We understand the unique challenges and restrictions of these environments such as how security solutions appear, how they are fitted and the way projects are managed. At Ocular, we understand these challenges and design and deploy solutions with skill, sensitivity and flexibility.
