The Challenge | And YOU can Help Fight Fires!
FireBugs
Fire-monitoring and crowdsourcing tool that allows local fire managers to respond to wildfires.
FireBugs is easy to use mobile platform that allows locals to share information about wildfires.
User can pin on the dynamic google map local fire photos or videos, we are calling those events as FireBugs, this means system (nature) have the issue and we have to fix it.
FireBugs is using NASA's Earth Data to show in the app fires around the world.
FireBugs is using NASA's Weather Data to display local Weather Data in all details.
In future we are going to add Machine Learning algorithms to predict wildfires based on previous data set, as when user reports the bug we are capturing all weather data and saving in our cloud, so with large scale of this type of data, we can predict about possible danger.
App is ready and fully functional, BETA version of Android is uploaded to Google Play.
SpaceApps is a NASA incubator innovation program.
