Flood Risk Assessment

Many government agencies such as FEMA in the United States, provide flood zone data for long term flooding risk, but what about areas that may be prone to flash floods or wildfire? This analysis takes synthetic policy data in Florida and analyzes it for Flash Flood risk using historic storms and historic fires, along with current weather warnings.

Insurance Underwriting

Underwriting or reinsuring a home or property insurance combines many different factors about the property but also the location where the property sits. While nationwide datasets exist for analysis like this such as the national FEMA risk index, other datasets like crime or emergency facilities are often shared by municipalities.

This workflow shows how you can combine many different data layers to make a spatial determination about a property.

Coastal Flood Risk

While flooding is a major risk in many areas, coastal areas are particularly prone to flooding both in long-term and short-term time horizons. In addition, each location has different factors that can impact flooding on a local level such as proximity to a storm drain or elevation.

This workflow shows how you can combine many different data layers to make a spatial determination using hyper-local data in Savannah, GA.
