Flock & ALPR Cameras in Uniondale, New York
Volunteers have reported 12 automated license plate readers in and around Uniondale — 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 Uniondale, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 3 of them sit inside Uniondale itself.
The rest sit in Village of Hempstead (9).
12 of them name an operator in the record: Hempstead Police Department (6), Nassau County Police Department (6). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
