Fire Department Incidents and Response Times

This dataset includes Burlington Fire Department calls for emergency services, incident types and response times from Aug 1, 2018 through November 30, 2019. Data is pulled from the Firehouse RMS database which was adopted by the Fire Department in August 2018.

In order to anonymize data and protect confidential information such as street addresses, we have used geomasking-techniques to modify the geopoints of specific calls, “Geographic masking" is the process of altering the coordinates of point location data to limit the risk of re-identification upon release of the data.

For questions about this data please contact Stephen Petit at the Burlington Fire Department (spetit@burlingtonvt.gov).
