## What it is
A curated collection of websites, browser add-ons, and repositories for gathering open-source intelligence about vehicles. It covers image-based vehicle identification, license plate lookups, VIN decoding, and related investigative resources.

## Use cases
- identify a vehicle's make and model from a photo
- look up information from a license plate number
- find vehicle history by VIN
- enhance blurry images of cars for identification
- run OSINT investigations involving vehicles
- find tools for facial recognition and image forensics in investigations

## When to choose
- you need a starting point of vehicle-related OSINT resources
- you are investigating a target vehicle from photos or plates
- you want a quick reference of plate and VIN lookup services

## When to avoid
- you need a runnable software tool rather than a link list
- you require guaranteed-legal or privacy-compliant data sources
- you need maintained code with a license and releases
