This is truly amazing. I haven’t seen anything like it anywhere. I now live in Boston USA and our family have a farm at Strathbogie near Euroa/Seymour. I have been in the CFA and SES and the quality of maps and updates is amazing. The ease of use and live data is exceptional. For a running fight when fighting bush fires and when you are on a tanker and the flames are surrounding you it is essential to know where farm fences run and it is accurate within feet on all the fences l know The other emergency features on trees down health etc show the massive effort being used. A truly remarkable Ap. It should be shared with every emergency management department around the world it will absolutely save human lives without question I was so impressed l forwarded a screenshot the other day to the director of the state emergency management here in MA USA

While on one hand an old iPhone 3GS isn't exactly a racehorse, there is nothing in this app that should require the added oomph of an iPhone 5. As it stands the app is klunky and non-responsive. Updates take forever. To put it flippantly: if you rely on this, you may find flames licking on your doorstep before it shows you a current status! Badly needs refactoring and performance tuning! For now I'll rely on the website on and on ABC radio.

Very innovative app and great content!!!! Would recommend a return/ back to app button when linked to website so you don't have to re-open app to explore other features.
