Flock & ALPR Cameras in East Syracuse, New York

Volunteers have reported 24 automated license plate readers in and around East Syracuse — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 24 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of East Syracuse, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 0 of them sit inside East Syracuse itself.

The rest sit in Town of DeWitt (18), City of Syracuse (6).

3 of them name an operator in the record: Lowe's (3). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
