#Out-of-state agencies

Five out-of-state agencies appear at a scale that warrants attention:

Cobb County, Georgia is the sixth-largest searcher in the entire dataset — ahead of every Texas agency except Houston, Dallas, DPS, and Harris County SO. Its 193,019 searches originate from a jurisdiction more than 1,100 miles from Bryan with no obvious geographic relationship to central Texas. Akron, Ohio and Richland County, South Carolina similarly represent agencies conducting large volumes of license plate queries on cameras located well outside their own regions.
