Create an Incident

Deze inhoud is nog niet vertaald.

When a fire is reported, you can log it in Wildflyer in under a minute. The app captures the location, sets up weather tracking, and makes it visible to your whole team.

There are two ways:

  • Click the + button in the incidents panel and choose Create Incident
  • Right-click anywhere on the map and select Create Incident

Both open the creation form with the map ready for you to place the fire.

Click the map where the fire was reported. The app will:

  • Drop a marker at that location
  • Look up the nearest place name and fill in the incident name automatically (you can change it)
  • Record the location with an accuracy radius

You can also draw an ignition point or perimeter for more precision.

FieldWhat to enter
NameAuto-filled from location — edit if needed
StatusWhere things stand: Reported, Active, Stabilised, Controlled, or Extinguished
CauseIf known: natural (lightning), accidental, arson, infrastructure, or rekindle
Ignition timeWhen the fire started — defaults to now

Click Create Incident at the bottom of the form. You’ll be taken straight to the incident detail page where you can add your team, draw perimeters, and upload photos.

  • You don’t need all the details upfront — create the incident quickly with a location and name, then fill in the rest as the situation develops
  • Looking to schedule a planned burn instead? See Plan a Prescribed Burn
  • In training mode, new incidents are automatically marked as training
