Description

**As a** FBA

**I need** a Graphical Repository of All Issued Fire Behaviour and Weather Warnings, Spot Forecasts, and Venting Forecasts

**So That I ...**
1) no longer need to manage and maintain outlook distribution lists when issuing warnings/spots
2) The warnings are spatially displayed
3) users from outside the fire centres can view the adjacent fire centre's warmings and spots. This should eliminate the edge effect issues.
4) Allows us to maintain an archive of previously issued warnings and spots. This would be valuable for case studies and litigation.

**Acceptance Criteria**
- [ ] Given (Context), When (action carried out), Then (expected outcome)
