About Watch Duty: Wildfire Maps
Watch Duty is the only wildfire mapping and alert app powered by real people giving you real-time information vetted by trained professionals, not robots. All other apps rely on only government alerts which can be hours late or flat out non-existent.
Watch Duty is run by active and retired firefighters, dispatchers, first responders, and reporters who monitor radio scanners in your area around the clock to bring you up-to-the-minute life saving information.
Wildfire tracking features:
- Push notifications about nearby wildfires and ongoing firefighting efforts
- Real-time updates as conditions change
- Active fire perimeters and progress
- Infrared satellite hotspot from VIIRS and MODIS
- Wind speed and direction
- Evacuation orders & shelter information
- Historical wildfire perimeters
- Street and satellite maps
- Air attack and air tanker flight tracker
- Saved locations on the map
Watch Duty is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that will always provide an unparalleled FREE service at no cost, forever. Our maps and alerting will always remain free but if you become a member for $25/year you will receive special features as a token of our appreciation. Your membership dues will support our free service for all and remain free of advertising or sponsorship.
If you’d like to drop us a line, learn more, or ask questions you can reach us anytime at support.watchduty.org. We’d love to hear from you.

New satellite, street, and finally a topographic map in addition to a whole new faster interface!
This winter we’ve been busy making our wildfire maps even faster with improved performance. Not only that, our maps are easier to read with brighter roads and easier to read labels. We’ve also added more up-to-date satellite maps as well as topographic maps for better situational awareness.
You may also notice we’ve made interface enhancements for better usability and less clicks when navigating between incidents. You’ll no longer need to use a ‘back’ button to jump back to the main map just like Google and Apple Maps.
