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.
