License plate readers in Elmont, NY

Volunteers have documented 10 automated license plate readers inside Elmont. That is the 41st-largest total among the 48 New York cities indexed here, and 0.2% of the statewide total. At 2.9 per square mile it is more densely covered than 77% of the 2,231 US cities indexed nationally. Not every operator recorded here is a public agency — volunteers also logged The Home Depot. Every mount volunteers recorded here is the same kind: poles.

These locations were documented in the field by OpenStreetMap volunteers and refresh automatically every six hours. They are evidence of where cameras have been seen — not a complete or official inventory, and cameras may have been added or removed since documentation. Corrections happen upstream: edit OpenStreetMap and this page will update. Read more in our methodology.
