Street View FAQ
Detroit Street View takes personal privacy seriously. Images are captured in publicly accessible spaces (primarily streets) and personally identifiable information is carefully anonymized through blurring of faces and license plates. Also, because the program is focused on observing stationary physical assets, the frequency of data collection at any one location is generally too low to gain insight into individual human behavior.
Street view imagery is available from multiple other sources, but Detroit Street view is unique due to its frequency of data capture, coverage extent (including parking lots, alleys, etc.), and the type of data products generated.
Detroit Street View aims to capture every street at least once each year, and multiple times per year in priority areas/corridors (examples: areas with active development, scheduled blight investigation or remediation, demolition activities, etc.).
Anyone can access and use the data. Many departments and agencies within Detroit City Government may use this data for property assessments, asset inventories, emergency response, and general reference. Data is incorporated into multiple web applications and enterprise systems.
No. Department of Innovation and Technology staff do not have the authority to write tickets.
The best way to request city services is through the Improve Detroit App (Android, iOS) or by visiting the city website (www.detroitmi.gov).
