What the Hail? For Home Insurers, Getting the Roof Right has Never Been more Important
Roofs of commercial building tend to be larger, flatter and more exposed to collecting water than those of residential homes.
Satellites, radar and other improving technologies are allowing insurers to assess roofs under a variety of conditions and across time.
Insurers can mine weather and claims patterns to better assess exposure across geographic regions.
Higher resolution drone cameras and smarter sensors are bringing greater accuracy to loss exposures.
Artificial intelligence and machine learning are helping insurers to convert images into indicators of likely loss.
