Fire times are mandated by the mandated by the National Fire Protection Association.Each row in the dataset represents a fire incident and includes data about when and where the fire occurred, dispatch times, when the incident was cleared, and whether the fire spread (Exposures) to another building, structure, vehicle, or objects.
