Flock & ALPR Cameras in Provo, Utah

Volunteers have reported 52 automated license plate readers in and around Provo — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 52 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Provo, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 51 of them sit inside Provo itself.

The rest sit in Orem (1).

17 of them name an operator in the record: BYU PD (14), The Home Depot (2), Provo PD (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 Provo

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