Public sources

Built on public feeds.

For wildfire today, Swift Warning draws on public sources and shows the source of each incident on the map.

  • WildCAD and NIFC
  • CAL FIRE
  • NASA FIRMS
  • National Weather Service and AirNow

Swift Warning is an independent app, not a government service. Always follow official alerts and instructions from local authorities.
