2023.07.d: Location Intelligence introduces US Windstorm Risk Score 23.0, US ESDB Building Attributes 8.2, and and FEMA 2023 P1 update.

US Windstorm Risk Score 23.0

Calculates risk score metrics for a geocoded location based on its location and building attributes using the US Windstorm Risk Score 23.0 data product.

The US Windstorm Risk Score data product contains pre-calculated risk scores for earthquakes that are derived derived from simulated catastrophe events using probabilistic models.

US ESDB Building Attributes 8.2

Updates exposure data for a geocoded location using the US ESDB Building Attributes data product.

The ExposureSource Database (ESDB) compiles comprehensive building attribute data based on a combination of analytics, validation heuristics, and industry exposure data. ESDB data products support a wide variety of applications including the validation and enrichment of location exposure data. ESDB data products are available for locations in the United States only. Using the ESDB, you can both assess and enhance the quality of your current exposure data and provide a solid foundation where no data exists.

FEMA 2023 P1 Update

FEMA Flood Zones, published by the Federal Emergency Management Authority (FEMA), are the primary method that emergency planners and some insurers gauge flood risk. RMS has digitized these maps to enable side-by-side comparison of their outputs with much higher resolution flood analytics. This will enable insurers to identify the best business out of the National Flood Insurance Plan (NFIP).
