Half of the gaps are shorter than 300 feet, and the middle half run from 150 feet to 600 feet.

A direction is recorded for 100% of the cameras here (60 of 60 cameras).

The most common recorded direction is south, with 17 cameras. A direction of exactly 0 is treated as not recorded, because that value is often left on a pin nobody set.

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

In Taylor, 58 of 60 mapped cameras carry an operator tag, which is 97% of the cameras here.

• Public agency48 cameras
• Private6 cameras
• Camera company0 cameras
• Other4 cameras
• Not recorded2 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.

The distance and area figures for Taylor come from 6,115 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 The counts are floors: a camera nobody has added to OpenStreetMap is not on this page, and a pin can be out of date.
