Understand Damaging Wind Risk

dwindsEach year, wind events account for millions of dollars in residential and commercial property damage.  CoreLogic's Damaging Winds dataset provides an accurate risk score and frequency for the three major types of damaging winds; straight-line, hurricane, and tornado, as well as an aggregate score of all three wind types.  Utilizing NOAA's damaging wind event data (winds >74 mph) from 1980 to the present, CoreLogic's climatological, statistical, and geographic experts modeled point wind observations to a 10x10 kilometer grid normalized by population density.

With CoreLogic's Damaging Winds database, insurance companies and corporate risk managers can understand the potential for wind losses.  Additionally, companies can utilize the database to identify lower risk zones within large geographic areas, determine relative risk potential in smaller areas, and identify low risk opportunities for the 48 contiguous states and Washington D.C.

Use the Damaging Winds risk database within CATUM, CoreLogic's integrated insurance solution, to accurately locate and assess the damaging winds risk potential for individual properties.
