Weather ingredients
These catalog parameters are part of the recipe. Dataset products such as warning geometry or gauge stage are linked below too.
Ingredients you bring
- Property coordinates or parcel geometry
- Incident date and search radius/area
- Report categories and investigation criteria
These are not supplied automatically by a weather API.
The method
- Query local storm reports for the area and incident window.
- Keep the reported location, time, source and magnitude together.
- Measure distance or intersect the report area with the portfolio.
- Attach relevant evidence for an investigator to review.
Both deliver storm-report data. Choose by the claims system versus GIS analysis workflow.
Enterprise
Use report area/time queries in a claims application and store the returned JSON/GeoJSON.
GIS or a hybrid
Join report features to a portfolio inside ArcGIS, then inspect clusters and individual properties.
