Understand coastal flood exposure with long-term stochastic storm simulation and climate-aware modeling.
KatRisk’s storm surge risk modeling helps insurers evaluate coastal flood exposure using stochastic tropical cyclone simulations and advanced hydrodynamic modeling. By combining 50,000 years of simulated storm activity with high-resolution terrain data, the model provides a clear view of storm surge risk across coastal portfolios.
The model integrates tropical cyclone simulations spanning more than 50,000 years of stochastic tropical cyclone simulations with advanced hydrodynamic modeling, enabling realistic representation of storm surge behavior and coastal flooding dynamics.
Explicit modeling of climate variability captures global sea-surface-driven teleconnections such as El Niño and La Niña, allowing insurers to evaluate surge risk across different climate states and scenarios.
Storm surge simulation incorporates detailed terrain and coastal elevation data to capture how coastal geography influences surge propagation and inland flooding.
Storm surge modeling integrates with tropical cyclone wind and flood models to evaluate the full coastal storm hazard.
Large event catalogs can be processed rapidly, supporting underwriting analysis, exposure evaluation, and reinsurance planning.
