In the U.S, there are 287 million vehicles registered on the road, equating to roughly 872 vehicles per 1000 people. Similarly, in Great Britain, there are 39 million licensed vehicles, equating to roughly 600 vehicles per 1000 people. Vehicles are intrinsically linked to our way of life and are rarely found far from their owners, with infrastructure designed around their heavy use. Therefore, identifying the vehicle that the subject of an investigation owns, has access to, or is in possession of, can provide valuable insight into their current location.

Images can provide a wealth of value to an OSINT investigation, they can show what a subject looks like, locations where the subject has been, and any vehicles used. Identifying this information can facilitate actions like surveillance or arrests, which would otherwise be reliant on text-based descriptions. Using search engines and free tools, investigators can utilize images to develop the intelligence picture, identify devices used to take images, identify where and when images were taken, and identify if a social media account belongs to a subject.
