Wildfires are on the rise. However, our project aims to reduce public fear surrounding these burns. Our team created a mock-up of a FireTracker web application. This application will allow the general public access to live and updated information about wildfires as they occur. By making the behavior of wildfires predictable, we hope to reduce public fear that is produced by the unknown.
