  1. Lookup Search

The Lookup search tool now lives on the main Search page. After you input the license plate characters into the License Plate box, the options of Nationwide Lookup, and/or state-specific Lookup (GA Lookup for example) appear. The Lookup tool search will still produce the Lookup view, it will just originate from the main Search window now.

Note: this feature may not be available for your agency or state. 3. Location Selection

My Networks (all cameras owned by your agency) is selected by default. You can click the Location box and select All Networks instead. This is all cameras shared to your agency.

You can also type a city or state into the location box and search all cameras in that specific area. 5. Draw to Select Devices

Click on Map & Devices to open the Location Drawer. Landing on the Map, you can choose to Draw a shape on the map.

Click on points on the map to define the shape. All cameras in the shape will be selected.

Click Done at the top right when the shape is completed. 6. Advanced Filters

The Advanced Filters drawer lives at the bottom of the Search window.

This drawer contains your options for selecting Plate Types (Temporary Plates, No Plates, etc.) and Image categories (All Images, Images With Plates, Images Without Plates). 7. Results View
