π₯ NIFC Wildfire Incidents Scraper
π Export NIFC records in seconds. Pipe results straight into your spreadsheet, dashboard, or data warehouse.
The NIFC Wildfire Incidents Scraper turns the public National Interagency Fire Center ArcGIS feed into a clean structured dataset of current US wildfire incidents. Each row carries incident name, state, county, coordinates, acres burned, containment, cause, and discovery date.
| π― Target Audience | π‘ Primary Use Cases |
|---|---|
| π Emergency managers | Track active wildfires nationwide. |
| π Insurance teams | Assess wildfire exposure on policy areas. |
| π° Journalists | Build live wildfire maps for newsrooms. |
| π² Forestry agencies | Coordinate response with current data. |
π What the NIFC Wildfire Incidents Scraper does
- Fetches the public NIFC feed at
https://services3.arcgis.com/T4QMspbfLg3qTGWY/arcgis/rest/services/WFIGS_Incident_Locations_Current/FeatureServer/0/query. - Parses the response and flattens each record into one structured row.
- Casts numeric values to numbers, dates to ISO strings.
- Surfaces upstream errors as a clean
errorrecord instead of crashing. - Pushes everything to the dataset, ready for instant download.
π‘ Why it matters: NIFC publishes the data, but the raw response is awkward to work with. This actor normalizes everything into a flat schema that drops straight into pandas, BigQuery, or a Google Sheet.
π Data fields
Each record includes: acres, cause, containment_pct, county, discovery_date, fuel_type, incident_name, lat, lon, results, scrapedAt, state, status. These field names come straight from the actor's dataset schema, so what you see here is what lands in your dataset.
β οΈ Good to Know. Free users are capped at 10 records per run as a preview. Paid users can pull up to 1,000,000 records.
π How to use
- Click Try for free.
