Flock & ALPR Cameras in Edgewater, Colorado

Volunteers have reported 42 automated license plate readers in and around Edgewater — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 42 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Edgewater, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 6 of them sit inside Edgewater itself.

The rest sit in Lakewood (24), Denver (10), Wheat Ridge (2).

4 of them name an operator in the record: The Home Depot (4). 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.
