For the last three seasons FireWhat Inc. has been implementing the full Esri ArcGIS stack, with an increasing reliance on AGOL and ArcGIS Server for wildfire emergency response. We are specifically focusing on the emergency sectors of: mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery. These Esri tools are increasing the efficiency and enhancing safety in the wildfire industry,empowering decision makers with better data, faster maps, and smarter workflows before, during and after a wildland fire.
