Altis: Satellite Flood Damage Triage for Insurers
Altis turns satellite radar into property-level flood damage assessments for insurance companies. Within 48 hours of a flood, we analyze Sentinel-1 SAR imagery, which sees through storm clouds, and deliver a ranked damage triage for every property in an insurer's portfolio, before adjusters reach the area.
What insurers get
- A flood depth estimate with uncertainty bounds for each property
- An impact tier from No Impact to Severe, with a confidence score
- A recommended action: resolve remotely or dispatch an adjuster
- A claims-ready CSV that imports into Guidewire and Duck Creek
Results
Validated on Hurricane Harvey across Harris County, Texas: a 52% reduction in unnecessary field inspections while keeping 90% recall on high-severity claims. Methodology published on arXiv.
Who it's for
Regional carriers, MGAs, and catastrophe adjusting firms that need fast, auditable flood claims triage without enterprise-priced satellite analytics.
