Made some minor User Interface improvements to :- 1) make it easier to see wind strength and direction 2) allow seeing an individual fire in the Google Maps application
3.0
Version 3.0 provides the following new features: - you can now set automatic refresh so that as fires come and go, you can see them appear and disappear from the list or from the map. - you can perform a search for a fire or fires of interest to you - you can select to see only going fires, or even only safe fires. - you can sort the fires in council sequence making it easy to determine which fires are in your area. - you can now twitter information, to keep others up to date on fire details. - you can turn off the wind data if you like. We have also added satellite hotspots to the map to help understand the size and location of fires. This is experimental at the moment so would appreciate feedback.
