Cape Analytics has developed a cloud-based platform that
provides an on-demand data stream of high-value property features
and risks for real estate portfolios across the United States. For
insurers, access to this data transforms their underwriting process
by improving the agent and customer experience, increasing quote
speed and refining quote accuracy – all with greater
cost-effectiveness.
The platform now integrates the accurate and frequently
refreshed aerial imagery, courtesy of Nearmap. Nearmap’s imagery
provides detailed 2.8” GSD resolution that is updated on a frequent
basis, which allows its subscribers to observe the truth on the
ground. With such imagery, Cape Analytics can use its machine
learning and computer vision algorithms to accurately assess dozens
of types of property risks instantaneously – from roof features and
condition, to potential hazards on a parcel such as pools and
trees, to the extent of damage following a hurricane.
"Cape Analytics is using Nearmap’s industry-leading aerial
imagery to provide tremendous value to the insurance and real
estate industries. Our images, combined with their cutting edge
artificial intelligence, opens the door to inspection-quality data,
without ever needing to set foot on a property. We are excited to
help Cape Analytics offer insurers this high resolution, consistent
and continually updated real estate data set,” said Patrick
Quigley, Senior Vice President and North America General Manager at
Nearmap.
“We are proud to partner with Nearmap. This partnership will
allow us to continue to extend coverage, frequency and fidelity of
our property data solutions by leveraging Nearmap’s
industry-leading refresh rate and image resolution,” said Cape
Analytics’ CEO, Ryan Kottenstette.
