The germ of an analytic set $(X,p)$ in $\mathbb{C}^n$ has an associated$\mathscr{O}_{\mathbb{C}^n,p}$-module $\mathrm{Der}(-\log X)$ of `logarithmicvector fields', the ambient germs of holomorphic vector fields tangent to thesmooth locus of $X$. For a module $L\subseteq \mathrm{Der}(-\log X)$ let$I_k(L)$ be the ideal generated by the $k\times k$ minors of a matrix ofgenerators for $L$; these are the Fitting ideals of$\mathrm{Der}_{\mathbb{C}^n,p}/L$. We aim to: (i) find sufficient conditions on$\{I_k(L)\}$ to prove $L=\mathrm{Der}(-\log X)$; (ii) identify$\{I_k(\mathrm{Der}(-\log X))\}$, to provide a necessary condition forequality; and (iii) provide a geometric interpretation of these ideals.  Even for $(X,p)$ smooth, an example shows that Fitting ideals alone areinsufficient to prove equality, although we give a different criterion. Using(ii) and (iii) in the smooth case, we give partial answers to (ii) and (iii)for arbitrary $(X,p)$. When $(X,p)$ is a hypersurface, we give sufficientalgebraic or geometric conditions for the reflexive hull of $L$ to equal$\mathrm{Der}(-\log X)$; for $L$ reflexive, this answers (i) and generalizescriteria of Saito for free divisors and Brion for linear free divisors.
