Identifiable Image
Long Beach Police Department

Automated License Plate Readers (ALPR) scan license plates on passing vehicles. Long Beach Police Department analyzes these images to enable the rapid identification of vehicles for official law enforcement purposes. Out of state and federal agencies will not have direct access to the Department’s ALPR data. Requests from out of state or federal agencies for ALPR data must be reviewed and approved by the Special Investigations Division Commander to ensure it is not being used for immigration enforcement. The Department shall conduct ALPR system reviews quarterly and on request to supervisory personnel at the LBPD.
