The California Wildfires of 2017 was the most destructive wildfire season in history. Even though these fires have been contained, a new wildfire season is heading our way. Relief efforts for wildfire emergencies are not perfect and opportunities for improvement are abundant. FireCode Hack aims to bring together innovative individuals to solve these problems through technology.
