The Australian Capital Territory publishes emergency data through the Emergency Services Agency (ESA). Two feeds are available: current incidents (RSS) and fire danger ratings (RSS).
Agencies: ESA-CURRENT (all incidents), ESA-FDR (fire danger ratings)
| Feed | Format | Update | Coverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| ACT ESA Current Incidents | RSS | 60 sec | All incident types |
| ACT ESA Fire Danger | RSS | 15 min | Fire danger ratings |
Coordinates (critical): ACT returns coordinates as string values in [lat, lng] order, which is the opposite of the GeoJSON [lng, lat] standard. You must swap them and convert from strings to numbers.
Timestamps: Uses "DD Mon YYYY HH:MM:SS.mmm" format with abbreviated month names and optional milliseconds. Requires custom parsing.
Auth: Both feeds are public with no authentication.
