摘要

The publication contains the system documentation for the Version 4.0 release of the National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) software package. It is addressed to two audiences: the personnel likely to manage and operate the system and the personnel responsible for the computer processing of NFIRS data. It includes both operational information, i.e., flow charts and system description. It contains guidelines for installing, testing, and implementing the new release of the system. The Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) U.S. Fire Administration established the NFIRS for the collection of fire incident and fire casualty data on a nationwide basis.
