There are probably a lot more cameras than are listed in the database.

You could point a camera down the street you live on and record the license plate of every car that passes and video of every pedestrian for a few hundred dollars.

I thought about doing this a couple of years ago when there were a few instances of theft going on. To get into or out of my neighborhood, you have to drive by my home and I wondered if I could capture the license plate of the thieves.



Yup, about 100k installed vs about 40k mapped
