Every year harvest more than one hundred thousand units of vehicles. In Moscow alone, daily change hands by theft of more than 40 cars. Total for the country at large are more than 2 million cars. Detection of the same type of crime is only about 40%. However, quite a long time in competent circles known method of tracing stolen transport through a comparison between the databases.
there are several different databases on road transport. First, a database producer - VAZ, GAZ, etc. Manufacturer always keeps a record number of output. Secondly, a database of customs on motor vehicles imported from abroad. Thus, any vehicle purchased legally in Russia, appears in one of these databases. Thirdly, there is the database of registered Transport, separated by the regional traffic police. These databases were formed in Soviet times on an "as God in the soul lay." They have different format and not consolidated. That is one database for all vehicles registered in the Russian Federation does not exist. Fourthly, there is a base of stolen vehicles, which stores information about the vehicles stolen during the entire period of record keeping.
The search logic is simple enough: take a database at a car, registered in the traffic police of any region, and compared with a database produced (or imported) cars. If the records match, the machine is purchased legally. If the records do not match, chassis number or engine has been changed, hence, the car probably has a criminal origin.
This search algorithm was developed in Togliatti in the late 90's and quite successfully applied and used to search vehicles one of the private detectives. Due to the fact that the databases have different formats, no one holds their automated processing, all cars are checked manually. Attempts were made to automate the process of MIA, but apparently without success, and not particularly active. For example, a unit of the group of companies "Formosa" a few years ago has been developing a computer system "Kalina", which was to become a new element of the vehicle registration and tracing of stolen cars, but the unit was shut down and information continue to develop there.
Currently, staff within some parts of the traffic police are checking vehicles at the registration on the basis of the issued vehicles, but this is clearly not on a national scale. In addition, it is not possible to identify already registered cars, which illegally acquired a new owner.
In the late 90's the author of this article, and he worked in the investigative agencies, was investigating the theft of vehicles. Interested in advanced technologies, engaged in improving the search algorithm referred to transportation. Was automated processing, resulting in a possibility to check not the individual machine, and your entire regional base vehicle registration. Treatment of transport to one area on the test takes only a few days, resulting in treatment could detect and identify all previously stolen and now registered motor vehicles, as well as vehicles issued with a duplicate ID numbers (unreported production plants). The program was able not only to determine that the car has a modified number of units, but also give suggestion as they were earlier (based on collected statistics on interrupted by numbers: for example, most often interrupted by "1" to "4", "3" to " 8 ", etc.).
The developed software was demonstrated at the Interior Ministry, where she interested, but no action for implementation are not taken, suggesting to the author independently communicate with the traffic police. The author's alone, too, was not possible to independently operate the program. Attempt to interest the insurance company was unsuccessful, and in fact much of the stolen car was insured, and insurers could recoup their losses. Hijacking - one of the key articles of consumption Insurers. According to expert estimates, the total payments on this risk is around 5 billion rubles a year.
