Hazardous Materials are all around us and every day, incidents occur. We usually hear about the significant incidents in our local or national news but many of the incidents never become newsworthy – thankfully. Just today, there are highway closures, explosions, suspicious packages, fires, truck overturns and more. In some cases, these incidents happen closer to you than expected.
Now, thanks to GlobalIncidentMap.com, just about every reported incident is viewable, live, on line. In addition to HazMat situations, the traceable categories include Forest Fires, Disease Outbreaks, Earthquakes, Amber-Alerts, and more. On the live map, there is also a live feed which offers brief descriptions of all the current incidents that are being watched.
To check out this map, go to www.globalincidentmap.com and you can filter the maps to indicate HazMat situations, or whatever situation you wish to follow.
