Wildfire. Wind. Hail. Flood. Crime. If it can affect a property, it’s here. See the data for yourself below.

  • Understand a property’s wildfire risk before you make the call. Our Wildfire 3.0 model brings together proprietary data and advanced machine learning techniques, so you can see wildfire exposure in more detail that moves beyond standard US Forest Service data. Key fire risk data includes:

    • Fire Suppression Score: Local response speed and capability rating
    • Fire Hydrant Distance: Ground-truth distance to nearest water source
    • Drive Distance to Station: Routing-based travel time to responding facility
    • Fire Station Staffing: Personnel classification (Career vs. Volunteer)
    • Wildfire Score: Proprietary ML-driven wildfire risk grade
    • WUI Indicator: Indication of property’s distance from wildland-urban interface
    • AAIS Protection Class: Industry-standard 1-10 community safety rating
    • Wildfire Fuel Type: Vegetation analysis surrounding the property
    • Slope & Aspect: Topographical factors accelerating fire spread
    • Hydrant Redundancy: Count of all hydrants within 1,000 feet
    • Burn History: Proximity to historical wildfire perimeters and ignitions
  • Understand the weather risks tied to any address, including how often severe events happen and how exposed the property is today. Key weather risk data includes:

    • Hail Score: Modeled probability of damaging hail events
    • Wind Score: Damaging wind risk with nearest wind incidents
    • Tornado Score: Frequency and severity-based grade for tornadic activity
    • Hurricane Score: Likelihood and intensity of tropical cyclone impacts
    • Max Wind Speed: Historical peak gusts recorded at the specific location
    • Lightning Strike Density: Ground lightning strikes within 10 miles last year
    • Wind-Borne Debris: Risk level for projectile damage during high-wind events
    • Tropical Storm Frequency: Historical recurrence of tropical systems
    • Straight-Line Wind Risk: Vulnerability to non-tornadic wind damage
    • Nearest Hail Incident: Size and date of the closest recorded hail fall
  • Flood zones only tell part of the story. We help you go beyond FEMA maps with a 360-degree view of water risk at the address level, including flooding, storm surge, and interior water damage. Key water risk data includes:

    • Flood Score: Proprietary grades for address-level flood risk
    • Distance to Coast: Proximity to oceanic boundaries for saltwater exposure (beach, coast, and inland waterways) 
    • FEMA Flood Zone: Presence within 100-year or 500-year hazard areas
    • Frozen Pipe Score: Propensity for interior pipe bursts in cold weather
    • Mold Score: Environmental susceptibility for moisture and fungal growth
    • Ice Dam Score: Likelihood of roof damage from freeze-thaw cycles
    • SurgeMAX Score: Vulnerability to storm surge during tropical events
    • Snow Load Score: Maximum weight-bearing requirements for roof integrity
    • Sea Level Rise: Projected inundation risk over 30, 50, and 100 years
    • Coastal Barrier (CBRS): Status for federal flood insurance (NFIP) eligibility
  • See what’s happening beneath the surface before you bind. With address-level insight into seismic, geological, and terrain exposure, you can spot risks more clearly and avoid surprises in your underwriting. Key earth risk data includes:

    • Sinkhole Susceptibility: Likelihood of ground collapse or subsidence
    • Sinkhole Proximity: Distance to nearest recorded sinkhole incident
    • Site Elevation: Absolute height above sea level for terrain analysis
    • Slope & Aspect: Grade and orientation affecting ground stability and fire/flood risk
    • Earthquake Score: Address-level seismic risk grade
    • Modified Mercalli (MMI): Potential shaking severity based on local geology
    • Distance to Fault Line: Precise proximity to known seismic features
    • Radon Gas Exposure: Predicted indoor radon levels based on regional geology
    • Landslide Score: Susceptibility to earth movement and slope failure
    • Soil Composition: Analysis of soil type and foundation stability
  • Risk isn't always natural. HazardHub tracks thousands of man-made hazards that impact property value, safety, and liability. Key man-made risk data includes:

    • Crime Score: Address-specific ML-driven crime risk grade
    • Property Crime Score: Risk level for burglary, larceny, and motor vehicle theft
    • Violent Crime Score: Risk level for assault, robbery, and homicide
