Flock & ALPR Cameras in Rockport, Texas

Volunteers have reported 5 automated license plate readers in and around Rockport — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 7 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Rockport, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 5 of them sit inside Rockport itself.

The rest sit in Bayside (2).

1 of them name an operator in the record: Aransas County (1). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.
