JamaicaEye
JamaicaEye is part of an islandwide network of camera surveillance systems designed to increase the safety of all citizens. These cameras will monitor public spaces across the island and assist the authorities in responding to incidents in the event of an incident, disaster, act of criminality or accident.
If you have a camera system outside your home or office, facing a public space you may help by registering your camera with JamaicaEye to share your camera feed.

A strong foundation of peace, safety and security, is critical to the development of a sustainable economy. Our investment in the development and expansion of JamaicaEye represents an important part of this secure foundation. This investment will utilize technology as a force multiplier for our police, expanding their reach and providing useful information for criminal investigations and overall surveillance.
The Ministry of National Security recognizes that improvements to the efficiency and capacity of the police force, is crucial in our pursuit of a safer Jamaica. JamaicaEye has been developed as an acknowledgement of the opportunities presented by technology, to assist the police in their responsiveness to critical incidents and their surveillance capabilities. Furthermore, the cameras and corresponding monitoring centers across the island, forms part of the modernization of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF).
This approach includes all of Jamaica. I encourage everyone with a camera facing a public space to provide JamaicaEye with your camera feed. Everyone must do their part to fight crime; together we are determined to curtail disruptive, criminal behaviour that undermines our social institutions, and creates a deficit of peace and order in our social environment.
The Jamaica envisioned according to our Vision 2030 development plan is “one which conforms to the rule of law, respects the rights of all, and coalesces around a set of shared values.” I am confident that JamaicaEye will help us get there.
