Aliases

A license plate style alias (alias) is a group of license plate styles. You can group license plate styles into an alias by creating the alias and assigning the alias to the license plate styles of your choice.

You don't need to use aliases, but they could be useful for a number of reasons:

• Aliases help you categorize license plate styles according to your license plate recognition needs. See Example of use of aliases and license plate styles.

• License plate styles have long and complex names that might be difficult to work with. Using aliases, you can give license plate styles a more descriptive group name.

• You can add aliases to match lists. See Add match list items.

• The XProtect Smart Client operator can add aliases to match lists.
