Community-mapped camera locations
12 mapped camera points inside the New Brunswick 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.
