All data displayed on this map is near real-time. There are two ways in which this happens: Web service based data and a mobile mapping application called Field Maps. Web services are updated regularly ranging from every minute to once a month. All web services in this map are refreshed automatically to ensure the latest data being provided is displayed. Data collected through the use of Field Maps is done so by firefighters on the ground. The Field Maps application is consuming, creating, and editing data that are stored in ArcGIS Online. These data are then fed directly in to this map.
