Flood Experts Ambiental Join Aon Benfield Research Collaboration
Targeted News Service |
Ambiental, a flood risk assessment consultancy, is working with Impact Forecasting - Aon Benfield's catastrophe model development centre of excellence - to improve the mapping of flood extents using their advanced hydrodynamic modeling capability. The Ambiental approach describes the real physical behaviour of flood phenomena with improved accuracy, thus enhancing probabilistic catastrophe models and construction of historical event footprints.

"It is always rewarding to see how the results of our flood knowledge and technology can be used practically to benefit the insurance industry, especially considering the scale of losses from recent extreme flood events internationally. Our hydrodynamic modeling tools use the latest computational techniques to increase processing speed whilst maintaining accuracy and stability so as to meet the demands of insurers, brokers and reinsurers for cost effective, high resolution flood mapping."
