NEW! AURA Worldwide Speed Trap Database.
The AURA advantage
THE IMPORTANCE OF VERIFICATION - All databases are not created equal.
Aura database incorporates with Enigma database.
Unlike AURA, many other GPS databases rely largely on locations provided by hobbyists who might not be able to tell a speed camera or a red light camera from a traffic flow camera or a surveillance camera. These databases could result in annoying false alerts, which could lead you to start ignoring even legitimate alerts--defeating the point of having a GPS database in the first place.
Other databases are not updated every day, and they also limit how often you can download updates. As a result, devices using these databases are not as up-to-date as they could be and are likely to miss alerts.
In contrast, Snooper has assembled a professional team that devotes every working day to verifying each and every speed camera and high risk zone that goes into the AURA database. by contacting:
The AURA database is constantly updated, and can be accessed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. AURA’s reliability is backed up by Snooper, one of the most respected and trusted satellite navigation and speed camera location manufacturers. Snooper has won dozens of awards for innovation and product performance and has been establised since 1979.
If you’re considering a GPS database to reduce your risk of an unintended speeding ticket or accident, doesn’t it make sense to go with the database—and the company—that reduces that risk the most?
The AURA speed camera detector database is the most comprehensive of its kind in Europe and is utilised by only Snooper’s satellite navigation and GPS speed trap location systems.
Other 2 in 1 satellite navigation systems such as Tom Tom, Garmin and other GPS speed camera detectors only give you the opportunity to download a database perhaps four times a year. This means that your system can be up to three months out of date before your next update and you can get caught by a speed camera you didn’t know about. New speed cameras (including temporary cameras) appear on the AURA speed camera database within 48 hours.
Speed cameras are here to stay and are still on the increase, Snooper satellite navigation and GPS speed camera detector systems such as the S2000 Syrius Proline and the Sapphire Plus are equipped to keep you aware of the stretch of road you are on, letting you know the speed limit and alert you to all fixed cameras including the new MCS (Multi-Camera System) plus SPECs average speed cameras in road works.
Our database incorporates many thousands of cameras, all types of fixed point speed traps and many mobile sites throughout the UK and includes the speed limits at all these locations. As well as the UK and Ireland, the AURA speed trap database now offers Worldwide protection. Included in our system are locations in Germany, Holland, Belgium, France, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, Luxembourg, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Poland, Romania, Russia, North America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa and is still growing.
The AURA speed trap and accident hotspot database comprises the widest number of locations and alerts including:
- Gatso & Truvelo Cameras
- Watchman
- MCS (Multi Camera System)
- Speedcurb
- SPECs average speed
- Roadwork cameras
- DS 2
- Accident Hotspots
- High Risk Zones
- Mobile Laser
- Mobile Safety Vans
- Temporary Gatso
- Truvelo Cameras
- Congestion Charge Cameras
- Digital Cameras
- Schools (optional)
Snooper has pioneered speed safety camera detection and the AURA database leads the way in accuracy and consistency as well as being the most comprehensive in the World.
Common Speed Camera Types
Snooper Speed Camera Detectors and Navigators warn you of all types of camera. Here are some examples of casmera you may see whilst travelling.
Speed Curb Truvelo Peek Trafficpax
The Speedcurb camera is very rare at the moment and they are also known as "Monitron" or "Tri-eye" cameras. Due to the fact that they operate with two sets of piezo strips in the road surface rather than radar or laser emissions, you will need a GPS system in order to detect them.
Truvelo cameras, whilst they may look similar to the traditional Gatso device work in an entirely different way. The camera doesn't use radar or laser to determine speed, instead speed is measured through two independant sets of piezo strips in the road surface. Once the speed is calculated, a picture is taken of the front of the offending vehicle. In order to be alerted to this type of device you will need a GPS based system.
It is still possible to see the older style Peek cameras in use. These work by vehicles driving over three piezo strips situated in the surface of the road. This type is also accompanied by lines on the road similar to the Gatso type cameras. Please note: They can also be used as Red Light Cameras which are not included in the Enigma database.
DS 2
DS2 / Speedmaster / Autovision are names for a very similar system, which is a semi-permanent type site. There are usually 3 piezo strips in the surface of the road, accompanied by a short grey post on the verge. These sites by themselves are harmless and again warning is only given using a GPS system. They require additional equipment which is usually found in a camera partnership van or unmarked car.
