You can report fires in the app directly, report them on Twitter -- the twitter sheet will be pre-filled with a screenshot of your location and the twitter handle of the fire brigade. The same is true for Facebook users. The reported fires to social media are also indicated with Pins on the map. Furthermore, you can also check where fires are detected by satellites.
