Sources & records

Everything on this page traces back to the records below. Where a record carries no linked document, we say so instead of filling the gap.

Documented deployment records

Deployment records come from the EFF Atlas of Surveillance ↗. Database last updated 2026-08-07.

Community-mapped camera locations

19 mapped camera points inside the Newark boundary, from OpenStreetMap contributors via the DeFlock ↗ dataset (ODbL). Each point links to its own OpenStreetMap record in the camera list on this page.

Camera points are matched to this municipality by point-in-polygon containment against US Census Bureau cartographic boundaries (2023) — the coordinate falls inside the municipal boundary. Containment is a statement about location only, never about ownership, operation, purchase or deployment.

Camera counts, contract prices, retention and sharing policies are shown only where we found a primary source. Where they're missing, the information is not publicly verified — see the Flock Files for the documents we do have.
