Half of the gaps are shorter than 100 feet, and the middle half run from 50 feet to 250 feet.

A direction is recorded for 84% of the cameras here (154 of 184 cameras).

The most common recorded direction is southwest, with 39 cameras. Because 33 cameras carry two directions and are counted once in each, the eight counts add up to 187 directions from 154 cameras. A direction of exactly 0 is treated as not recorded, because that value is often left on a pin nobody set; that leaves out 10 cameras here.

The direction is the compass bearing a mapper noted for the camera, as it stood when they looked.

In Beverly Hills, 77 of 184 mapped cameras carry an operator tag, which is 42% of the cameras here.

• Public agency77 cameras

The kinds are read from the operator names mappers typed. A name is counted as private only when it plainly belongs to a business, an association or another private owner; a name the rules cannot place is counted as other; and where no operator is recorded the camera is not assumed to be anybody’s. The method page sets out how a name is sorted into a kind.
