Hey buddy the Australasian Inter-Service Incident Management System (AIIMS) is the nationally recognized system to manage bushfires and other large emergencies (e.g. floods, storms, cyclones etc.)

A Level 1 incident is characterized by being able to be resolved through the use of local or initial response resources only

In a Level 1 incident the major function is operations, that is to resolve the incident.

Control of the incident is limited to the immediate area, and, therefore, the operations function can usually be carried out by the Incident Controller





Level 2 Incident

Level 2 incidents are more complex either in size, resources or risk.

They are characterized by the need for:

Deployment of resources beyond initial response:

OR

Sectorisation of the incident

OR

The Australasian Inter-service Incident Management System

A Management System for any Emergency

The establishment of functional sections due to the levels of complexity

OR

A combination of the above.
