Flock & ALPR Cameras in Whiting, Wisconsin

Volunteers have reported 12 automated license plate readers in and around Whiting — 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 Whiting, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 2 of them sit inside Whiting itself.

The rest sit in Village of Plover (8), Stevens Point (2).

6 of them name an operator in the record: Lowe's (4), Flock Safety (1), Stevens Point Police Department (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 Whiting

These aren’t red-light cameras.

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