Risks & Perils

Flood

Flood maps & data are a vital element in land use planning for flood-prone areas. They can identify areas at risk of flooding and help prioritise mitigation measures and response efforts. Flood maps & data enable visualisation and analysis of several flood types, including river, surface water, coastal, groundwater, canal failure and dam break.

Subsidence

Subsidence and general ground movement data is essential for making confident planning decisions. Produced by expert geologists, these data products cover a range of potential hazards including landslides, shrink-swell clays, soluble rocks, running sands, compressible and collapsible deposits.

UK Radon Potential

Every building contains radon but the levels are usually low. In some parts of the country, however, levels are higher. Where this is the case, it may be necessary to take action. This would include identifying, measuring and mitigating exposure to reduce health risks.

UK Radon Potential shows where higher levels of exposure are likely in the United Kingdom. The data can be used to provide an answer to one of the standard legal search enquiries during house purchase and the level of protection required for extensions and new builds.

Political Risk Intelligence

Political Risk Intelligence provides rich, data-driven information about the dynamics of active and emerging political conflicts worldwide and any resulting security risks for both private and public sector organisations. It can help you identify, measure and visualise the development of political risks over time and affected location.

CRESTA Zones

CRESTA Zones help to analyse and present natural hazard risk, based on the system established by the world’s leading reinsurers. While peril-independent, CRESTA (Catastrophe Risk Evaluating and Standardising Target Accumulations) has established a uniform and global system to transfer, electronically, aggregated exposure data for accumulation risk control and modelling among insurers and reinsurers.
