Whelp, I now have wiki pages fleshed out for ALPRs and gunshot detectors on the #osm wiki. Consider these a first stab at writing down / establishing a normalized set of tags and practices for ALPRs and other surveillance tech (like gunshot detectors):

I'm honestly not a fan of having discussion live only in Discord --- or any ephemeral IM platform. I like forums --- or at least wiki talk pages --- better :P

And just the ALPRs with orientation info from deflock.me/map, showing pretty extensive coverage of all the ways into the region via 24 ALPRs, most of which are Flock devices (a few Axis ALPRs are there, too).

Aaaand now I've fleshed out the data in the map with proper tags.

Ho Lee Crap this region is crawling with surveillance. I mean, I kinda figured. It has a reputation as being a "bad" part of town. But damn. Dozens of Flock shot spotters, and at least a dozen ALPRs. Working on adding details to the map now. Used #StreetComplete for initial survey. Been using it often enough that I might try out adding a flow for Surveillance Things specifically rather than having to tack on notes and go back in via iD to flesh things out.
