MCFRS Significant Incident Map - Week of January 6 - 12, 2013

In an effort to expand our Open Gov-like offerings, MCFRS has put together the below Google Map: MCFRS Significant Incident Map - Week of January 6 - 12, 2013.

This will allow the user to go in and click on various fire department incident icons to see what is going on and where. Understand these are only incidents we think have some significance and will not include, for example, a response to false or well intentioned fire alarms. Likewise, not every single medical call is on there either.

The flame icon represents fire related incidents, while the cross indicates vehicle crashes and the circle with heart beat rhythm indicates significant medial related incidents. Hope all of you find this useful. Please comment below or send an email letting us know what you think.

DavidM, Right now there is not. Hopefully there will be in the future. Maybe someone out there in the general public could help with that?
