Case study snapshot A regional carrier used our analysis on roof deterioration trends to launch a targeted inspection program for mid-century coastal assets. By combining satellite indicators and prioritized drone surveys, the insurer focused remediation dollars where deterioration trajectories were worst. The program reduced severe roof claims, improved loss ratios, and freed capacity for selective growth.
