Speed Measuring Equipment

David Burgess made this Official Information request to New Zealand Police

The request was successful.

From: David Burgess

Dear New Zealand Police,

I understand that some variants of the Stalker DSR radar units that have been used by the police have software and/or hardware modifications that are unique to New Zealand.

(1) What are the differences between the NZ and International Units ?

(2) Why were the changes made - what was the reason for NZ to have a different model to overseas users ?

(3) Can I please have user manuals and police instructions for the deployment and use of the speed measuring equipment that is used in New Zealand ?

(4) Is equipment used in New Zealand given an independent test by Industrial Research or some other agency before it is deployed in New Zealand ? If so, can I please have copies of their reports ?

Thank you very much.

Yours faithfully,

David Burgess
