EmergencyAPI for Developers

Australian emergency data is fragmented across 8 states. Each publishes in a different format (GeoJSON, GeoRSS, ArcGIS, RSS, XML, CAP-AU) with different field names, different coordinate systems, and different update intervals.

If you want national coverage, you need to write and maintain parsers for every single feed. That is weeks of work before you can build anything useful.

One API. All 8 states. 27 feeds normalised into GeoJSON aligned with CAP-AU standards. Get your first incident in 30 seconds.

Filter by state, event type, severity, warning level, bounding box, or proximity. Cursor-based pagination. CSV and CAP-AU output formats available.

• 27 feeds across all 8 states and territories
