Documented deployment records
- Belgrade News ↗Gallatin County Sheriff’s Office · 07/30/2020 · record AOS009064
Deployment records come from the EFF Atlas of Surveillance ↗. Database last updated 2026-08-07.
Community-mapped camera locations
4 mapped camera points inside the Bozeman 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.
Nearby documented deployments
Other Montana communities with a record in our database — nearest by county first. Absence from this list is not evidence of absence.
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.
