Security multinational Nurizon Corporation, is the first organisation to launch such an advanced fleet of emergency service and surveillance vehicles in the region, and the project has already received international acclaim as being a major step forwards in the provision of turnkey local public safety solutions.

All of the vehicles provided by Nurizon Corporation for the security forces in Mecca, are fitted with technologies ranging from Mobile CCTV - Video and Audio Surveillance Systems, Automated Licence Plate Recognition (ANPR and MLPR), Mobile Data, Satellite Vehicle Location (AVLS), Vehicle Navigation and Guidance, Mobile Data Terminals (MDT), and Transflective In Vehicle Touch screens.

Christopher Riddell, Chief Executive Officer for Nurizon Corporation, speaking at a press conference in the Diplomatic Quarter of Riyadh for the vehicle launch said that:

'I am delighted to be able to officially launch our newest and most advanced fleet of emergency vehicles here in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.'

Christopher also went on to add that 'Nurizon Corporation is a leader in the middle east for providing integrated homeland security and public safety solutions, and this latest delivery of key market specific technology by Nurizon Corporation, demonstrates our continued commitment to the region, and our partners and customers alike, during what is widely known as one of the most important times of year in the Muslim Calendar.'

Nurizon Corporation has been working with a number of local and international partners over recent months to bring together the products and technologies, and adapt them specifically for the Middle East, and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In Country partners for the project include Saudi Telecom Company (STC), who are providing the high speed communications data infrastructure to the vehicles, Bravo! (PTC) who are providing the highly acclaimed iDEN Push To Talk services to all of the vehicles, and various other companies such as Al Jazirah Motors Company who have provided the vehicles and support services throughout.

All of the police vehicles include Arabic and English Licence Plate Recognition technology, which is often also referred to as ANPR (Advanced Number Plate Recognition) or LPR (Licence Plate Recognition). This provides the security and law enforcement agencies with the most accurate and instant verification of vehicle ownership and latest intelligence information, without the need of a police officer having to pick up a telephone or radio, to make a check on the vehicle manually. Officers are automatically alerted by an audible alarm, and a message on the touchscreen installed in the vehicle, whenever a vehicle 'hit' is discovered.

The Security Forces in Saudi Arabia have adopted the Nurizon Licence Plate Recognition Systems as part of a larger strategy of security upgrades across the Kingdom which Nurizon are strategically involved in, including the ATVAM (Automated Traffic Violations and Monitoring) Kingdom wide project.

The Nurizon fixed and mobile ANPR solutions form part of a mesh network of intelligence and data gathering systems, which greatly enhance the productivity and time which officers are spending on the streets and on patrol. Security Forces are widely known to have checkpoints spread at key hot spot and strategic locations around the Kingdom, and this technology is just another tool which enhances public safety around the clock, for over two million muslim visitors to Mecca performing Hajj this year.
