- U.S. residents checking documented camera coverage nearby
- Worth noticing
- The page warns that some records describe an intersection, toll gantry, corridor, facility, or program—not a precisely located device.
Field notes
The source workflow starts with public material, including OpenStreetMap community data, then separates source identity, original values, and location detail for review before publication. The page also explains that plate-reader records do not include license plates or a searchable history of vehicles, and that one record does not necessarily mean one device. The described beta includes radius selection and a Follow me option.
