How to classify events

Keeping an up-to-date status on fire activity is critical for timely decision-making and effective fire management.

In this article, we'll cover:

  • Different ways you can classify your events
  • Classification Process

Classifications

Classifying your events is extremely relevant for Fire Management within your Monitored Areas.

 It allows you to have an overview of whether a cluster represents an actual fire, and whether firefighters have already been dispatched or not.

Through Classifications, you'll have real-time situational awareness that will help you to better assess incidents.

To understand more about Classifications, please refer to this article.


Classifying your Events

To classify events in the Wildfire Solution, you have two main methods: using the Incident Overview or interacting directly with the Cluster View.


Classifying via Incident Overview

1. Access New Events

  • Navigate to Incident Overview from your main dashboard to view a list of recent fire events across your Monitored Areas.
  • This view provides a summary of detected events, displaying essential details such as location, detection time, and status.

2. Identify Events to Classify

On the right side, you can find a bell with a a red dot next to events. This indicates a newly detected event that requires classification. This visual cue helps you quickly identify which events need immediate attention.

 

At this stage, it's interesting to name the events. This way becomes easier to refer to a specific event.

 

Classifying via Clusters

This method is especially useful for users who prefer to classify events directly on the map, allowing for a more spatially-oriented approach.

  1. Select a Cluster
  2. Navigate to the map view.
  3. Click directly on the specific cluster you want to classify.
  4. This action will open the Cluster Information View, showing detailed information about the selected cluster.

Classification Process

Incident Management

Cluster classifications are managed through the Incident Management function within the Wildfire Solution platform.

When you start the classification process, an Incident Management tab will appear, allowing you to document essential details for the cluster event.

In this tab, you can assign a unique name to the event, update its status to reflect the current situation, and, if available, identify the cause of the fire. This comprehensive information supports more detailed tracking and helps your team and stakeholders understand the event's background and current response status.
 

Timeline

All relevant information and any updates you make to the classification will be displayed in the Timeline Section of the Cluster Detailed View.

This section provides a chronological record of the cluster's history, capturing every change in status, incident details, and additional notes.

By keeping this timeline updated, you ensure that your team has a clear, documented history of actions and developments for each event, enhancing decision-making and post-incident analysis.
