Enhancing Property Underwriting: Multiple Imagery Sources
Kacper Bałdyga

Introduction

In the property underwriting realm, accurate assessments are paramount. Insurers rely heavily on precise data to evaluate risks and determine appropriate coverage. Tensorflight stands at the forefront, with our platform utilizing multiple imagery sources to deliver comprehensive property assessments. Our coverage spans 95% of properties in the US, EU, and Australia, providing insurers with unparalleled data quality and reliability. Let’s see why this is important.

The Powers of Multiple Imagery Sources

Global Coverage. One of Tensorflight’s property intelligence platform’s most significant advantages is its extensive global coverage, which includes 95% of properties in the US, EU, and Australia. This wide-reaching network ensures that insurers have access to critical property data from nearly any location within these regions – meaning one data provider (Tensorflight) for all markets around the world. The ability to tap into such a vast dataset means that insurers can confidently assess properties no matter where they are situated, providing a reliable foundation for risk evaluation and underwriting decisions.

High-Quality Data. By leveraging a combination of satellite, aerial, and ground-level imagery, Tensorflight enhances the quality and accuracy of property assessments. Each type of imagery contributes unique advantages:

  • Satellite Imagery: Offers broad, large-scale views, enabling the assessment of extensive areas and the identification of macro-level environmental risks, such as flood zones or wildfire-prone regions.
  • Aerial Imagery: Provides more detailed, mid-range views that are particularly useful for evaluating property conditions, structural details, and nearby hazards that might not be visible from satellite images alone.
  • Ground-Level Imagery: Delivers close-up, granular details that are crucial for identifying specific property attributes, such as building materials, roof conditions, and exterior features.

The integration of these diverse sources ensures a comprehensive view of each property, significantly reducing the likelihood of missing critical details that could affect risk assessment and underwriting outcomes. Thanks to it, we’re able to provide quality data on over 40 property data points.

Provider Choice. Tensorflight’s platform sources imagery from multiple providers, ensuring that the data is not only high-quality but also versatile. This diversity in data sources means that users can select the best available imagery for each assessment/report, tailoring the data to the specific needs of the property and the underwriting criteria. By not being reliant on a single provider, Tensorflight can maintain a higher standard of data quality and reliability, offering its clients a more robust and dependable property assessment tool.

Why is it important?

Increased Accuracy. Combining data from various sources enhances the precision of property assessments. Satellite imagery provides wide coverage, identifying large-scale environmental risks. Aerial images offer mid-range details, such as structural conditions and nearby hazards. Ground-level photos give close-up views, showing specific property attributes like building materials and roof condition. This layered approach minimizes errors, ensuring that insurers have a complete and accurate picture of each property.

Timely Updates. Access to the latest images ensures that the most current property data is used in assessments. This is crucial for keeping up with changes due to new constructions, renovations, or natural events. For instance, timely imagery updates can help insurers reassess properties accurately after a natural disaster, leading to better risk evaluations and faster claims processing. This quick access to updated information means insurers can make decisions based on the most recent and relevant data.

Comprehensive Views. Multiple perspectives provide a thorough analysis of property attributes. Satellite images can reveal geographical features and land usage patterns. Aerial photos give insights into the property’s context within its surroundings, such as nearby vegetation or other buildings. Ground-level images detail the exterior condition and specific features of the property. These combined views help underwriters evaluate the property more comprehensively, considering all possible risk factors.

It also comes together and dries organizations for better, enhanced risk management.

Better Risk Identification: Multiple imagery sources help in identifying potential risks that single-source data might miss. For example, combining satellite images with aerial and ground-level photos can reveal flood-prone areas or fire hazards from surrounding vegetation. This multi-source data approach ensures that no significant risk factors are overlooked, allowing for more accurate risk identification and management.

Detailed Property Insights: Detailed imagery aids in understanding property features that impact risk, such as building materials, the number of stories, and roof conditions. These insights are crucial for assessing the property’s vulnerability to various hazards. Tensorflight’s advanced visualization tools integrate these insights, making it easier for underwriters to analyze and interpret the data. This detailed level of analysis supports more informed and accurate underwriting decisions.
