DeFlock: crowdsourced map of automated license plate readers
DeFlock · August 19, 2026 · United States
Open-source volunteer map of ALPRs. DeFlock Maps reported well over 130,000 devices in the U.S., with Flock around 82% of mapped units, Motorola about 5%, Genetec about 2%. Locations come from volunteers and OpenStreetMap, not the vendors. Companion map at maps.deflock.org.
Why it is in the file
The map people actually send around. Note it is crowdsourced — Nexstar and others flag that they cannot independently verify every pin. Still the best public inventory.
