Watch Duty: Wildfire Maps

iOS Universel / Actualités

Watch Duty is the only wildfire mapping and alert app powered by real people giving you real-time information vetted by trained professionals, not robots. All other apps rely on only government alerts which can be hours late or flat out non-existent.

Watch Duty is run by active and retired firefighters, dispatchers, first responders, and reporters who monitor radio scanners in your area around the clock to bring you up-to-the-minute life saving information.

Wildfire tracking features:
- Push notifications about nearby wildfires and ongoing firefighting efforts
- Real-time updates as conditions change
- Active fire perimeters and progress
- Infrared satellite hotspot from VIIRS and MODIS
- Wind speed and direction
- Evacuation orders & shelter information
- Historical wildfire perimeters
- Street and satellite maps
- Air attack and air tanker flight tracker
- Saved locations on the map
