# 2021-02 Pulaski County Deploys SkyCop Genetec ALPR System On or about **February 7, 2021** (the date stamped across all line items of the DFA-IGS Equipment Inventory Report), PCSO took delivery and deployed a [[SkyCop, Inc.]]-installed [[Genetec, Inc.]] AutoVu LPR system funded by the federal PSN18 grant. The deployment consisted of: - **3 fixed multi-camera SkyCop enclosures** at three Little Rock and North Little Rock locations: **Arch St (LR), McArthur Dr, and Frazier Pike (NLR)** — each enclosure containing 2 LPR cameras, for **6 total fixed LPR cameras**. - **1 mobile vehicle-mounted LPR system** (Genetec AutoVu Patroller with Sharp XS VGA cameras and rapid-deployment case) installed in **PCSO Patrol Unit 913**. - **1 ARC server** for plate-read data storage at the PCSO main office (2900 S Woodrow, Little Rock). - Genetec LPR Base Software v5.7 + LPR Software License (5 connections) + Camera Licenses (6 cameras × $95/yr). - On-site training (delivered by SkyCop; 30 days remote support included). ## Sources - [[SkyCop Invoice 8381 — Pulaski County Genetec System]] — documents the equipment inventory and the September 2021 invoice that executed the spend. ## Significance The February 2021 deployment is the **origin date** of PCSO's continuous ALPR operations. The system would operate for approximately 2.5 years before being supplanted by Flock (per the 2023 RFP-23-003 procurement); during that period, the [[2022-01 PCSO PSN18 Grant Closeout|2022 Year-End Narrative]] reports the Genetec system scanned **~1,386,000 license plates** and produced **800+ active hits** through December 31, 2021. The deployment is also the corpus's **second documented Arkansas SkyCop+Genetec installation** — the first being Conway PD's pre-Flock system per [[SkyCop Estimate for Pre-Flock Genetec LPR System|the 2022 SkyCop estimate]] in `PD-2026-477`. See [[The Genetec-to-Flock Pre-Flock Transition]] for the cross-jurisdictional synthesis. The mixed fixed/mobile deployment is the corpus's first documented hybrid ALPR architecture. The fixed cameras at three commercial-arterial locations and the mobile patrol-car system in Patrol Unit 913 together provided both passive 24/7 surveillance of major thoroughfares and active officer-driven surveillance during patrol shifts.
