Flock & ALPR Cameras in Roselle, Illinois
Volunteers have reported 13 automated license plate readers in and around Roselle — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.
Jurisdiction · by recorded street address
The 13 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Roselle, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 7 of them sit inside Roselle itself.
The rest sit in Schaumburg (5), Schaumburg Township (1).
2 of them name an operator in the record: Schaumburg Police Department (2). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
