DeFlock is a map that identifies the location of ANPR/ALPR cameras and the area under surveillance.

ANPR/ALPR: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_number-plate_recognition

Anyone can update the map with camera locations.

The map is based on OpenStreetMap but the data is not visualized on OpenStreetMap.org.
