Download FireMapper

FireMapper Enterprise
FireMapper Enterprise is free to download, but requires an annual Enterprise Subscription to be activated for use. It is designed for organisations that require multiple users to share maps and data in real time. Please contact us for more information.
The FireMapper Portal is a linked platform accessible through an Enterprise subscription. It is a centralized web-based management system designed to streamline tracking, configuring, and editing of the organisation’s maps and user profiles.
Please see here for more information.

Note

There is another more light-weight version of FireMapper which does not support collaborative mapping. Please see FireMapper Standard for more information.
