FBI busca acesso nacional a câmeras de leitura de placas nos EUA

O Federal Bureau of Investigation anunciou planos para adquirir acesso nacional a redes de leitura de placas de veículos para monitoramento em tempo quase real em todo o território dos Estados Unidos e suas regiões.

A agência publicou uma solicitação de propostas em 14 de maio para que fornecedores disponibilizem dados de câmeras que cubram pelo menos 75 por cento das localidades. O sistema deve permitir buscas por números de placas completos ou parciais, descrições de veículos, datas e critérios geográficos, entregando resultados em tempo quase real. Os contratos podem durar até cinco anos e totalizar até 36 milhões de dólares em seis regiões, incluindo Havaí, Alasca e Porto Rico.
