Which way Ohio cameras face
An ALPR reads plates only in the direction it points, so a camera facing away from your lane doesn't photograph your plate. 49 of the 6,948 documented cameras in Ohio have a recorded bearing.
- N — 4
- NE — 7
- E — 5
- SE — 4
- S — 9
- SW — 3
- W — 12
- NW — 5
Bearings are rounded to the nearest of eight compass points. The 6,899 cameras without a recorded direction aren't counted here — that detail simply hasn't been tagged yet.
Camera vendors in Ohio
- Flock Safety — 6,076 cameras
- Unknown vendor — 736 cameras
- Motorola/Vigilant — 63 cameras
- Genetec — 41 cameras
- Rekor — 32 cameras
Vendor comes from OpenStreetMap's optional manufacturer tag. Most cameras read as unknown vendor because nobody has recorded that detail, not because the hardware is unidentifiable.
Planning a route around Ohio cameras
The interactive map includes a route planner: set a start and an end point and it returns both a direct route and one routed around documented cameras, so you can weigh the extra distance against the cameras avoided. It can only route around cameras that have been mapped, which in Ohio means these 6,948.
Common questions
Is there a Flock camera map for Ohio?
Yes. FlockScanner maps 6,948 documented ALPR (automated license plate reader) camera locations in Ohio, including Flock Safety cameras, as of October 20, 2026. That is 4.8% of all cameras documented nationally. Each is plotted with its vendor where recorded and, for 49 of them, the compass direction it faces. The data comes from OpenStreetMap volunteers and refreshes nightly.
How many Flock cameras are on the map in Ohio?
6,948 as of October 20, 2026, spread across 147 cities with their own map page. This counts cameras volunteers have mapped, not every camera installed in Ohio, so treat it as a floor rather than a total.
Which cities in Ohio have the most Flock cameras?
By documented count, the Ohio cities with the most mapped ALPR cameras are Columbus (423), Cleveland (245), Akron (188), Toledo (184), Dayton (125). Each has its own map page on FlockScanner listing the individual cameras. Bear in mind this ranks mapping activity as well as deployment.
Which way do Flock cameras in Ohio face?
49 of the 6,948 documented cameras in Ohio have a recorded compass bearing. 12 face W, 9 face S, 7 face NE, 5 face E. Direction matters because an ALPR reads plates only in the direction it points, so a camera facing away from your lane does not photograph your plate.
