Data in FIRS is collected under the CFA Act 1958 s98(a).\r\n   \r\nData Compiler(s):  \r\nData are collected by CFA which is a volunteer and community-based fire and emergency service organisation. \r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\nCFA ensures data are securely maintained, and does not report identifiable information. \r\n\r\nRelevance:\tData topic:\r\nThe data capture the type of location (fixed property use) for every incident attended by CFA.  Fixed property use can be defined as a property/section of property that has a specific purpose or use.  \r\n\r\nLevel of geography: \r\nData are available for all incidents that CFA attended within CFA jurisdiction in the state of Victoria.  \r\n \r\nKey Data Items: \r\nKey data items available include: \r\n\u2022\tIncident fixed property use (aggregate level)\r\n \r\nNumerator/Denominator Source:  N/A\r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\nData are collected in the Fire Incident Reporting System (FIRS) to: meet CFA's statutory obligations, to assist with fire investigations, and to identify areas for prevention activity.  Fixed property use is a mandatory field in FIRS and every incident has a fixed property code.   \r\n\r\nTimeliness:\tData collected: \r\nData are collected on an ongoing basis and reported as required. \r\n\r\nData available:\r\nData are available as and when required. \r\n\r\nReferenced Period: \r\nThe reference period is financial years 2009-2010 to 2014-2015.\r\n\r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\nReporting in FIRS has a variable lag time, therefore there is the potential for incomplete reports to be completed at a later date which may affect the incident numbers and fixed property use codes.  \r\n\r\nAccuracy:\tMethod of Collection: \r\n\u2022\tIncidents in FIRS are generated by emergency calls.  \r\n\u2022\tThe 000 Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system places a call to CFA which initiates a record in FIRS.  \r\n\u2022\tThe incident information is collected by the firefighters on scene, and is either directly entered by brigades or entered through the call centre. \r\n\r\nData Adjustments: \r\nData were adjusted to aggregate, de-identify and confidentialise records. \r\n \r\nCollection size: \r\nCFA responds to approximately 40,000 incidents per year. \r\n\r\nUnder Counts: \r\n\u2022\tThe completion of fire reports may be affected on days where industrial action is undertaken by career firefighters.  \r\n\u2022\tIncomplete fire reports may, on rare occasions, be removed from FIRS.\r\n\u2022\tCFA have processes and procedures in place to minimise errors. \r\n\r\nOver Counts: \r\n\u2022\tIncidents are generated and consolidated through the 000 CAD system over counts are unlikely, unless related to definitions of 'incident'. \r\n\u2022\tCFA have processes and procedures in place to minimise errors. \r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\n\u2022\tData processing is automated, and there are standard procedures and manuals in place to minimise data entry and processing errors. \r\n\u2022\tData are provided only for incidents, not for CFA turnouts.\r\nCoherence:\tConsistency over time: \r\nData are relatively consistent over time, however changes to definitions occur from time to time.  Minor variations to coding occur on advice from the Australian Fire Authorities Council (AFAC)  \r\n\r\nConsistency of jurisdictions: \r\nStates/Territories report to the Australian Fire and Emergency Service Authority Council (AFAC) through the Australian Incident Reporting System (AIRS). AIRS has standards for data entry including full description of codes which are used throughout the system to achieve uniform descriptions. Data captured by FIRS are consistent with AIRS requirements, therefore data are consistent across Australia. \r\n\r\nNumerator/denominator: N/A\r\n\r\nThere is a consistent time series for these data.\r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\nThe AIRS manual is updated annually which may affect definitions used in FIRS.\r\n\r\nInterpretability:\tContext: N/A\r\n\r\nOther Supporting information: \r\nFurther information is available from AFAC:\r\nhttp://www.afac.com.au/ \r\nhttp://www.afac.com.au/services/data \r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\n\u2022\tData have been aggregated into fixed property use codes.   \r\nAccessibility:\tNo further data are available. \r\n\r\nContact details: \r\n\r\nCFA Headquarters\r\nAddress:  8 Lakeside Drive, Burwood East, Victoria Australia 3151\r\nPostal Address:  PO Box 701,Mount Waverley, Victoria Australia 3149\r\nTelephone: +61(3) 9262 8444\r\nFax: +61 (3) 9264 6200\r\n\r\n\r\nAdditional information:\r\nData captured include identifiable information, therefore records have been aggregated prior to release and no further granularity can be provided.  \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n", "datastore_active": false, "datastore_contains_all_records_of_source_file": false, "description": "Further details about this specific data resource, to be displayed on the Preview page", "filesize": "", "format": "XLSX", "hash": "", "id": "b69edc6d-e757-4bec-aee8-f5317eca035e", "last_modified": null, "metadata_modified": "2025-06-25T22:38:19.780477", "mimetype": null, "mimetype_inner": null, "name": "CFA Fixed property use ", "package_id": "a89122b3-90b5-4237-8794-ed3a1f2e3041", "period_end": "2015-06-30", "period_start": "2009-07-01", "position": 0, "release_date": "2015-11-17", "resource_group_id": "318be1f6-4fae-426b-ab7b-64d57abe34c5", "resource_type": null, "size": null, "state": "active", "url": "http://www.cfa.vic.gov.au/fm_files/File_links/CFA-Fixed-Property-Use.xls", "url_type": null, "webstore_last_updated": "None", "webstore_url": "None", "zip_extract": false}], "tags": [{"display_name": "CFA", "id": "f3647c5e-3bc2-408e-8636-31fe1b9721d2", "name": "CFA", "state": "active", "vocabulary_id": null}, {"display_name": "Country Fire Authority", "id": "b8f4b8f0-187c-41a3-818e-ccdefdc80887", "name": "Country Fire Authority", "state": "active", "vocabulary_id": null}, {"display_name": "FIRS", "id": "326e352d-4c7d-4d5b-9886-43639923e9a9", "name": "FIRS", "state": "active", "vocabulary_id": null}, {"display_name": "Incident", "id": "51e8d031-bac6-4dee-b784-2f0903f9b131", "name": "Incident", "state": "active", "vocabulary_id": null}, {"display_name": "Property Use", "id": "2e0874e0-2d2a-4660-ae3b-9d5f2add6051", "name": "Property Use", "state": "active", "vocabulary_id": null}], "groups": [], "relationships_as_subject": [], "relationships_as_object": []}}
