What this page is and is not. These are cameras that somebody has mapped in OpenStreetMap, not a complete inventory. A location missing here may still exist; a location listed here was newly mapped, which is not the same as newly installed. Across Canada we hold 1,673 records and 888 of them carry no operator tag at all, so per-operator counts are floors, not totals. Data © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL), generated 2026-10-19.
