Seattle 911 Google Map

03 February 2006 | By Ian in Google, Made by isnoop, PHP, Site Features

After watching a building burn across the water from my office today, I had the idea of applying the Seattle emergency response data to a map.

You can click on each of the datapoints for some interesting info on what’s going on at this very moment in the Emerald City. In later revisions, I’ll add auto-updating AJAX calls and fancy icons for different event types.

If you live in a major city with data like this, let me know the URL. I might be able to whip up something similar for you.

    Ah, you. You make me laugh like a hurricane at the sun. How about Vermillion? I want to know about all of the parties that are getting busted at every minute. You should call me sometime so that we can talk about Emily and llamas and horseradishes.
