What they look like
Our identification guide describes the hardware Leonardo/ELSAG 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.
