RFS Incident Tracker

 

Social Media Administrators Extra Features

To help with our own Facebook page and other social media platforms, I created extra features to help speed up the creation of content available for social media administrators.

When the below feature has been enabled, extra items will be visible throughout the website, for example:

  • The ability to set your lat/long location so that incidents display an accurate "distance from" measurement
  • Incident pages will have automatically generated images like;
    • Incident cards
    • Alert images
    • Alert Images that have a static Google map embedded
  • Automatically generated Fire Danger Rating images
  • High resolution FDR "map" images in the standard RFS format
This means you can quickly see which incidents are most applicable to your brigade/community then save and upload social media ready images.

I'm open to suggestions for new features and changes. Just shoot me an email!
