Flock & ALPR Cameras in Omaha, Nebraska
Volunteers have reported 24 automated license plate readers in and around Omaha — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.
Jurisdiction · by recorded street address
The 22 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Omaha, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 21 of them sit inside Omaha itself.
The rest sit in Carter Lake (1).
5 of them name an operator in the record: Omaha PD (4), Omaha Police Department (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 Omaha
These aren’t red-light cameras. Automated license plate readers like Flock Safety’s photograph every plate that passes, log the time and place, and store it in a searchable database that’s often shared far beyond Omaha — here’s where that data goes. Counts cover cameras reported closest to Omaha (within ~20 km), so nearby towns share the same corridors. Spot one that’s missing? Report it on DeFlock.
