How these figures are worked out
The distance and area figures for Twin Falls come from 5,199 sample points, laid 100 metres apart across the area inside its boundary.
Each distance is a straight line from a sample point to the nearest mapped camera of any make, and that camera can stand outside the boundary. The counts are floors: a camera nobody has added to OpenStreetMap is not on this page, and a pin can be out of date.
Questions about this page
What does “typical distance” mean for Twin Falls?
It is a median, not the distance from any one address. Of the 5,199 sample points inside Twin Falls, half are closer to a mapped camera than 0.5 miles and half are farther. For the cameras nearest to a spot you care about, check that address itself.
Why is a camera I have seen not counted here?
Most likely nobody has added it to OpenStreetMap, which is where every pin on this site comes from. That makes each count on this page a floor: the cameras somebody has mapped, and no others. Add the camera there and it shows up here after the next refresh, which runs once a week.
Why does the title say “Flock & Other” and not just “Flock”?
Flock Safety is the recorded maker of 98% of the mapped cameras here (46 of 47 cameras). A page on this site names Flock only where that share is 60% or more, and says “other” because the rest are not recorded as Flock’s.
