Flock & ALPR Cameras in Tinley Park, Illinois
Volunteers have reported 12 automated license plate readers in and around Tinley Park — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.
Jurisdiction · by recorded street address
The 12 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Tinley Park, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 6 of them sit inside Tinley Park itself.
The rest sit in Orland Park (5), Oak Forest (1).
2 of them name an operator in the record: The Home Depot (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.
