New Hazard Enhancements

The following sections describe the updates to the Hazard methodology and its associated new API endpoints.

New Hazard Methodology

Climate on Demand introduces the newest hazard location methodology H.2026.1 in this release. With new and improved metrics compared to existing hazard metrics in Climate on Demand, the new hazard data is better aligned with the modeling used to generate the financial impact metrics. Therefore, the new Hazard metrics improve the explanatory power of the financial impact metrics and better allows you to understand the underlying drivers of the financial impact metrics.

As with every release, you can find the documentation for this new set of metrics in the Moody's Support Center along with the existing documentation for financial impact metrics.

New Job Type for Climate on Demand Pro

As part of this release, Climate on Demand introduces a new job_type for the new hazard data.

  • lookup-facilities-hazard

In this initial release, only location-level hazard data is available.

For this job_type, the input parameters are:
