What is documented about automated license plate surveillance in Kentucky — and what is still an open question.

That is a gap in our coverage, not a finding about your town. The map below is centred where you searched, and shows any camera coordinates volunteers have recorded there — which is a different question from what your government operates.
The fastest way to change that is a surveillance inventory request: it asks your government to list the technology it runs, in its own words. It is one email, any resident can send it, and the answer is what turns a blank space on this map into a record.

No Signal story yet names Kentucky. That is a gap in our coverage rather than a quiet state — send us what you are seeing.
These are not about Kentucky specifically. They govern the cameras in it.
More than 400 events in nearly every state, organised by DeFlock. Council meetings, records requests, information sessions. The organisers say plainly what it is not.
Get the Flock Out coordinates state affiliates, model legislation, and litigation. It also publishes figures — and one of them is testable against our own map.
The largest ALPR vendor in American policing announced real, substantial limits on its own product. It also left the one question this campaign is about exactly where it was.
We hold no researched record for Kentucky deep enough to have produced open questions yet. That is the largest gap on this page.
Unsurveilled holds no documented ALPR decision for any Kentucky jurisdiction. That is a statement about our research capacity, not about Kentucky.
The largest 40 of 62 places we can put on the map. Selecting one centres the map there. A place appearing here says nothing about whether it has cameras — it is a label, and the camera layer is separate and incomplete.
