Abstract
Methods and systems for detecting a vehicle of interest utilizing one or more traffic image-capturing units and a centralized server. A request from an authority to detect a vehicle of interest with respect to an incident can be verified based on particular criteria. One or more of the image-capturing units can be selected along with location information stored in a database in order to enable a search. A notification can be sent to the authority upon identification of the vehicle of interest by the image-capturing unit(s). An area or radius of search can be calculated to alert one or more other image-capturing units for use in tracking the vehicle of interest. Data regarding the vehicle of interest can then be transmitted to an incident management module to dynamically update details regarding detection of the vehicle of interest.
