This map plots OpenStreetMap nodes tagged as automated license plate readers. The default filter is Flock Safety only. Other ALPR vendors stay in a separate filter and are never added into a Flock total.
Use “near me” or a place search. The table under the map is the crawlable record: if the map canvas fails, the counts and rows are still on the page.
How to read a pin
Each pin is an OSM object with an id and last-edited timestamp. It is a reported location. It is not a live status light and not a statement that your plate was captured.
How to correct a pin
Edit OpenStreetMap. Alto reimports on a schedule. We do not take emailed pin dumps or unpublished location lists.

Flock Camera Map — Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a Flock camera?
- A Flock camera is an automated license plate reader (ALPR) made by Flock Safety. In the common roadside form it photographs passing vehicles and software extracts the plate and vehicle characteristics Flock describes on its public product pages. Police departments, sheriffs, HOAs, businesses, and schools are among the customers Flock markets to.
- Is there an official public map of Flock cameras?
- No. Flock Safety does not publish a complete official map of camera locations. Community projects tag visible ALPR poles on OpenStreetMap. Alto plots those reported locations and labels them as incomplete and unofficial.
- Where do Alto’s Flock locations come from?
- Reported coordinates come from OpenStreetMap nodes tagged man_made=surveillance and surveillance:type=ALPR. A pin is counted as Flock only when manufacturer, brand, or manufacturer:wikidata identifies Flock Safety. Alto does not survey poles itself.
- 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.
