How it works

Getting Your Data

Every product delivers the same data. The difference is how often it shows up and who does the driving. The driving is the easy part: a camera on the roof, a laptop, and any car your city runs. So easy a kid can do it.

Get your detections in three easy steps

Total collection freedom. Complete ownership of your data.

  1. Collect the data. Rely on our fleet for a one-time CitySnapshot or regular CityPulse data collection. Or use CityStream with a Placemetry camera rig mounted on your city vehicle for continuous or on-demand data collection.
  2. We run the analysis. Every image is processed automatically, with detections on roadways and properties.
  3. The detections are in your hands. Maps, spreadsheets, or straight into your systems through our integrations. Your city always owns the data.

Not sure where to start?

We recommend a no-commitment, low-cost CitySnapshot of a neighborhood of concern, or of your entire city.

We install Placemetry camera rigs on city vehicles. Your city subscribes to the service, priced at a flat rate per vehicle.

  • Put rigs on fleet vehicles like street sweepers or garbage trucks for continuous data collection on their regular routes.
  • Or put a camera on a code enforcement vehicle so officers can collect data on demand.

  • Your data uploads automatically as soon as vehicles return to the yard.
