SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING VISUAL REPRESENTATIONS OF CLIMATE HAZARD RISKS
A system and method for generating visual representations of climate hazard risk identifies geographic regions associated with flood hazard risks or risks of other extreme weather events. Disclosed embodiments may identify geographic regions associated with climate hazard risk using geolocation data such as geo-coordinates or postal zones. In a climate hazard risk platform, a climate hazard dashboard generates dashboards and reports providing visual representations of climate hazards and real estate assets within a selected geographic region. These dashboards and reports enable users to understand risk in different scenarios, such as projections over various time frames, physical climate hazard types, current and future time frames, and probabilities of occurrence. The platform includes a cloud data warehouse and a business intelligence (BI) analytics component. A climate hazard risk map may overlay a map of estimated climate hazard and a map of real estate assets within the selected geographic region.

Systems, Methods, and Platform for Estimating Risk of Catastrophic Events
In an illustrative embodiment, systems and methods for calculating risk scores for locations potentially affected by catastrophic events include receiving a risk score request for a location, the risk score request including a request for assessment of risk exposure related to a type of catastrophic event. Based on the type of catastrophic event, a data compression algorithm may be applied to a catastrophic risk model representing amounts of perceived risk to an area surrounding the location.
