Flock & ALPR Cameras in Jacksonville Beach, Florida

Volunteers have reported 36 automated license plate readers in and around Jacksonville Beach — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 36 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Jacksonville Beach, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 8 of them sit inside Jacksonville Beach itself.

The rest sit in Jacksonville (28).

2 of them name an operator in the record: Jacksonville Beach Police Department (2). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
