What they look like
Our identification guide describes the hardware Genetec sells and how to recognize an installation in the field.
Manufacturer comes from the tags volunteers attach to each camera in OpenStreetMap, classified as described in the methodology. Counts reflect volunteer documentation, not an official inventory, and a camera with no recorded manufacturer is counted as unknown rather than assigned to any brand. Camera locations: © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL). Finding Flock is an independent project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Genetec.
