Community Watcher

A live emergency map for your community.

When wildfire, flood, or disaster hits, people need one trustworthy place to look. We build a live, mobile-friendly emergency map for your town or county — fire perimeter, evacuation and re-entry zones, road closures, weather, and vetted resources — pulling from official sources and updating on its own.

What you get

We built the Community Watcher for Custer County during the Aspen Acres Fire — a live map that pulls the official fire perimeter, Sheriff evacuation and re-entry zones, road closures, hyperlocal weather, and a sourced resource hub into one calm, mobile-friendly page that updates itself. The live valley site is the proof. We can stand the same thing up for your community, branded as yours, so residents have one accurate place to look instead of chasing rumors across Facebook.

Common questions

Is this an official evacuation map? +

No — it is situational awareness that mirrors official sources and links residents straight to them. Official evacuation orders always come from your sheriff and emergency alerts; the Watcher makes them easier to find and understand.

Where does the data come from? +

Official and public feeds — NIFC fire perimeter, the National Weather Service, your county's public GIS/sheriff evacuation layers, and state road-closure data. If a source goes down, the map keeps the last good data and flags it rather than showing a blank.

How fast does it update? +

Automatically, on a schedule, from the live sources — typically every few minutes. No one has to manually post updates.

Can it be branded for our town or county? +

Yes. It runs on your domain, in your look. The Custer County build is the demo of what yours could be.

Who is this for? +

Counties, towns, fire protection districts, chambers of commerce, or a coalition of local businesses that wants to give residents one reliable emergency resource.
