These entries document that an agency has been reported to use ALPR technology. They do not establish camera counts, exact locations, cost, retention periods or sharing policies unless the linked source says so.

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.
Deployment records come from the EFF Atlas of Surveillance ↗. Database last updated 2026-08-07.
397 mapped camera points inside the Fort Worth 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.
