WESTERN FIRE CHIEFS ASSOCIATION

The Fire Data Lab is a non-profit organization dedicated to accelerating the use of data-driven decision making in the fire service. The Fire Data Lab was created by a partnership between the Western Fire Chiefs Association(WFCA), multiple Public Safety Organizations (PSOs), and Intterra. This partnership has created a common data warehouse that provides immediate benefits to partner PSOs, in exchange for access to their performance data. Data comes directly from the systems of partner PSOs after being anonymized for privacy and enhanced for data analytics. Partner PSOs are also collaborating with each other in a series of workshops and visioning summits that are focused on identifying and overcoming data challenges... The Fire Data Lab works with fire agencies to develop advanced data analytics that support decision making... The Fire Data Lab will integrate data from multiple department's systems and assemble them into a single warehouse for enhanced data analytics.
