Flock & ALPR Cameras in Summerside, Ohio

Volunteers have reported 19 automated license plate readers in and around Summerside — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 19 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Summerside, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 0 of them sit inside Summerside itself.

The rest sit in Union Township (19).

3 of them name an operator in the record: Union Township Police Department (3). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.

What’s watching Summerside

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 Summerside — here’s where that data goes. Counts cover cameras reported closest to Summerside (within ~20 km), so nearby towns share the same corridors. Spot one that’s missing? Report it on DeFlock.
