The problem with Australian emergency data

Australian emergency services publish incident data across dozens of separate feeds in different formats. Integrating them yourself means maintaining connections to each one, handling format differences, and dealing with upstream changes.

Without EmergencyAPI
  • Poll 30+ feeds yourself
  • Parse 8 different data formats
  • Handle upstream changes and outages
  • Build your own geocoding pipeline
  • No historical archive
With EmergencyAPI
  • One API call
  • Unified GeoJSON schema
  • We handle upstream changes
  • Coordinates on every incident
  • 767,386+ archived incidents

Designed to supplement, not replace

Your organisation already has primary emergency alert channels. EmergencyAPI provides the structured data layer alongside them. Searchable, filterable, historical. Built for integration into your existing systems, not to compete with official warning channels.
