State law notes
Alto has not yet recorded an ALPR-specific statute citation for Iowa. That is not a claim that none exists.
No verified public transparency portal URLs in the Iowa allowlist yet.
This page reports OpenStreetMap ALPR nodes in Iowa that are tagged as Flock Safety, next to any Atlas of Surveillance rows, public contracts, and news Alto has indexed. Absence of a pin is not proof the state has no cameras.
Every count is labeled with its source and import or document date. Alto does not treat community pins as an active contract.
Does Iowa use Flock?
Alto answers with the numbers on this page — reported OSM Flock tags, EFF Atlas rows if imported, and documents in the contract table — not with a yes/no slogan. Press-reported national totals are not applied to Iowa unless a source is about this state.
How to read the table
The Flock column is OSM nodes whose manufacturer or brand is Flock Safety. The all-ALPR column includes other vendors tagged on OpenStreetMap. They are not the same number.

Flock Cameras in Iowa — Frequently Asked Questions
- Does Iowa use Flock cameras?
- Alto does not answer that with a slogan. This page shows reported OpenStreetMap Flock-tagged locations in Iowa, plus any Atlas rows, contracts, and news we have sourced. A zero in the OSM column means no tagged nodes in the last import — not that no cameras exist.
- Where are Flock cameras in Iowa?
- Reported coordinates, when imported, appear on the Flock map filtered to Iowa. They come from OpenStreetMap contributors and can be incomplete or out of date.
- Does a pin mean the camera is on and the city has a contract?
- No. A pin is a community-reported location. The camera may have been moved or removed. A contract is a separate public record. Alto does not treat a pin as proof that a device is recording or that a jurisdiction currently pays Flock.
