AI Generated Wildfire Tracking Application
Eric Pimpler
Using AI through Replit, I created a comprehensive wildfire monitoring system that updates every 15 minutes with live data from federal sources (IRWIN & NIFC). The application features:
✅ Real-time incident tracking across the western US
✅ Interactive heat maps and geographic visualization
✅ Historical trend analysis and seasonal patterns
✅ Advanced filtering by fire size, type, and location
✅ Data export capabilities for emergency management
🤖 The power of AI development: What used to require weeks of coding was accomplished in hours through AI-assisted development.
🚨 Why this matters: Emergency managers need immediate access to current wildfire data to make life-saving decisions about evacuations, resource deployment, and public safety measures. This demonstrates how artificial intelligence is democratizing application development and enabling rapid prototyping of critical emergency management tools.
