A technology firm has announced the availability of a weather forensics service aimed at helping carriers respond to post-event claims.
EagleView Technology already provides an aerial imagery, data analytics and geographic information system (GIS) and now it has added a weather forensics feature to its services, called EagleView Onsite through a partnership with HailStrike, which also specializes in weather forensics.
EagleView said in a statement that the service allows the delivery of post-storm property and weather data directly to the claims adjuster.

The service uses storm data which is then used to help claim adjusters “determine the most efficient and effective way to settle property claims,” the statement read.
“This partnership will solidify a systematic flow of information from the site of the weather event directly to the claim adjuster in the office,” EagleView president Rishi Daga said in the statement.
