Flock & ALPR Cameras in Madison, Alabama

Volunteers have reported 25 automated license plate readers in and around Madison — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 25 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Madison, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 14 of them sit inside Madison itself.

The rest sit in Huntsville (11).

2 of them name an operator in the record: Dublin Farms HOA (2). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.

Source: community-mapped camera data (OpenStreetMap, ODbL), with addresses resolved by Nominatim.

What’s watching Madison

These aren’t red-light cameras. Automated license plate readers like Flock Safety’s photograph every plate that passes, log the time and place, and store it in a searchable database that’s often shared far beyond Madison — here’s where that data goes. Counts cover cameras reported closest to Madison (within ~20 km), so nearby towns share the same corridors. Spot one that’s missing? Report it on DeFlock.
