Tasmania publishes emergency data through TasALERT and the Tasmania Fire Service (TFS). Three feeds are available: TasALERT incidents (RSS), TFS fire data (KML), and TasALERT warnings (CAP-AU).
Agencies: TASALERT-RSS (incidents), TFS (fire data), TASALERT (CAP-AU warnings)
| Feed | Format | Update | Coverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| TasALERT Incidents | RSS | 60 sec | All incidents |
| TFS Fire Data | KML | 5 min | Fire incidents |
| TasALERT Warnings | CAP-AU | 5 min | Official warnings |
Event type extraction: The TasALERT RSS feed embeds the event type inside the description field as plain text (e.g. "TYPE: Structure Fire"). It is not in a dedicated field. You need regex extraction to get it.
Geometry: TasALERT provides GeoRSS point elements. TFS provides KML with coordinate data. Both require conversion to GeoJSON.
Auth: All feeds are public with no authentication.
