NSW Fires

Description

This application is designed to provide up to date information about bush fire data in New South Wales, Australia.

It utilises data from the NSW Rural Fire Service RSS feeds on fires with your current location provided by the iPhone GPS.

Using this information the application is able to provide a list of fires showing the nearest ones first, helping you to understand your current situation.

The information is reliant on both the accuracy of the iPhone GPS and the data recorded on the RFS's website.

This application does not cache any data, so Internet access (either Wireless. 3G or GPRS) is required to access the data.

Be aware that while P4G has utilised "best efforts" to provide this information to you, it is not intended to replace other sources of information on the fire situation near you. Also remember that fire and weather can change quickly.

All data is provided Copyright from the NSW Rural Fire Service.

Great app.

As a field officer in the RFS, this app never fails to be my go to app. Easy to use with excellent information and updated information and maps. Keep it up!

App not working

I’m a volunteer rural firefighter and The app will no longer open for me. Can you do an update to fix it?

More and better info

Gives nearby wind direction and strength and also fire intensity where it’s being monitored.

Apple Map of fires near you NSW

So frustrating that there is no legend. The major fire areas are shown in various shades of red but there is no explanation of what these mean. Where is the fire front?, are these fires active? How complete is the level of destruction? There is so much more information that would be useful.

Not reliable.

Great App, till it doesnt work? This App worked properly, for 2 days. This morning, not so? No idea how to get it to work properly. Being from an area where fires are close! Not at all reassuring during this time. :’( as with a previous review, the home information initially put in etc, is just gone?

Fantastic

This is the most amazing site updates so frequently and so accurately it is a god sent to families every day

Great value

Fantastic app just the thing for the Fire season

Fire radiation/modis data not working

I bought this for the modis fire radiation data overlay but it stopped working after a few days when we really needed to rely on it, no real advantage paying for this over the free firesnearme app without it. Was great when it was working

Number of vehicles on site would be beneficial.

Mr

Excellent
