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.
55 mapped camera points inside the Provo 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.
Other Utah communities with a record in our database — nearest by county first. Absence from this list is not evidence of absence.
Search records reviewed for a Utah county show the majority of queries against its license plate camera data came from agencies outside Utah. It is the recurring problem with networked ALPR: a camera bought by a local council is routinely searched by people the council has no authority over.

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.
