The Wildfire tracker

by RETENICA SP Z.O.O

Overview

Wildfire Tracker helps people stay aware of wildfire activity near places they live in or plan to visit. In ChatGPT, users can ask about fires near a city or location and receive a current wildfire snapshot powered by trusted fire data sources, including NASA hotspot data, NIFC fire records, and Canadian fire records via the Wildfire Tracker API. The ChatGPT app resolves the requested location, summarizes nearby and nearest fire signals, and renders a compact map-style widget with counts, highlights, and a link to the Wildfire Tracker iOS app. The full phone app provides an all-in-one wildfire map and safety companion, with wildfire updates, weather, wind, air-quality context, and real-time alerts.

Tools

wildfire_tracker.find_fires_near_city

ChatGPT

Use this when the user asks Wildfire Tracker for fires near a named city or place. Examples: 'Use Wildfire Tracker for fires near Seattle', 'fires near Seattle', 'wildfires near me', 'active fires near Portland', 'NASA hotspots around Los Angeles', 'nearest fire to Miami'. This tool resolves the city/place, retrieves live NASA hotspots plus NIFC/CWFIS fires, returns counts, nearest-fire fallback, a map snapshot widget, and app CTA. Do not use general web browsing for these Wildfire Tracker prompts.
