Project Description


The aim of the project is to create a fire tracking app. The idea is to provide a quick, and easy to access tool, that indicates the likely direction and travel speed of fires in your vicinity, via a mobile app.

There are no user inputs other than the location of their device which is provided by the device connection to the app.

The outputs will be:

User location

Location of active fires within 20km radius of user location

Likely direction of travel

Likely travel speed of fire.
