Flock & ALPR Cameras in Atlantic Beach, Florida

Volunteers have reported 20 automated license plate readers in and around Atlantic Beach — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 20 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Atlantic Beach, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 4 of them sit inside Atlantic Beach itself.

The rest sit in Jacksonville (14), Neptune Beach (2).

7 of them name an operator in the record: Atlantic Beach Police Department (4), Neptune Beach Police Department (2), Jacksonville Sheriffs Office (1). 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 Atlantic Beach

These aren’t red-light cameras.
