Why support FireRadar

Public wildfire information should be easy to reach.

FireRadar is independently built and operated. It is designed around direct official sources, honest labels, and a clear separation between confirmed incidents, alternative national data, satellite detections, smoke forecasts, and air-quality observations.

Behind the map is modern cloud infrastructure, automated processing, caching, and ongoing source monitoring designed to keep the experience fast and dependable as demand changes.

Dependable access

Keep the map available

Contributions help cover the cloud infrastructure, database capacity, bandwidth, and map delivery needed to serve Canadians during busy wildfire periods.

Reliable by design

Maintain trustworthy data flows

FireRadar monitors and processes direct official feeds while keeping incidents, satellite hotspots, smoke forecasts, and AQHI observations clearly separated and labelled.

Continued improvement

Build a better public map

Support funds performance work, accessibility, source maintenance, new Canadian coverage, and practical improvements across desktop and mobile.
