Flock & ALPR Cameras in Shorewood, Wisconsin

Volunteers have reported 33 automated license plate readers in and around Shorewood — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 33 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Shorewood, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 2 of them sit inside Shorewood itself.

The rest sit in Milwaukee (31).

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

What’s watching Shorewood

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