Why report?
The data you provide is essential if we are to understand and effectively combat the fire problem in Minnesota. It helps us focus on real fire problems rather than popular perceptions. On the local level, this data provides information to help focus on prevention efforts. It also assists with budget planning for staffing and equipment.
Who uses this data?
Fire data is requested on a daily and weekly basis by the media, the public, the fire service, and the fire protection community. It is used to support legislative initiatives and to guide public fire safety and prevention campaigns. The information is also compiled in our annual Fire in Minnesota report.
How many departments submit data?
On average, between 90-95 percent of the state's fire departments have submit data year over year.
