CATMAP provided a catastrophe loss analysis system for treaty insurers and reinsurers in particular. [3] In late August 1992, AIR published results from its U.S. Hurricane Model that estimated insured losses for Hurricane Andrew's landfall in southern Florida could come to surpass $13 billion. The estimate, which was met with skepticism at the ...
Catastrophe modeling [1] (also known as cat modeling) is the process of using computer-assisted calculations to estimate the losses that could be sustained due to a catastrophic event such as a hurricane or earthquake.
Atmospheric dispersion modeling is the mathematical simulation of how air pollutants disperse in the ambient atmosphere.It is performed with computer programs that include algorithms to solve the mathematical equations that govern the pollutant dispersion.
Pitney Bowes Software Helps Insurers With Catastrophe Modeling and Risk Management During Extreme Weather Events ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Risk managers and reinsurance experts meeting in ...
HYSPLIT – Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory Model. Developed at NOAA's Air Resources Laboratory. The HYSPLIT model is a complete system for computing simple air parcel trajectories to complex dispersion and deposition simulations. More information about this model can be found at
A year loss table (YLT) is a table that lists historical or simulated years, with financial losses for each year. [1] [2] [3] YLTs are widely used in catastrophe modeling as a way to record and communicate historical or simulated losses from catastrophes.
In 2002, it expanded its decision analytics business with the acquisition of AIR Worldwide, a catastrophe modeling firm. [5] In 2004, it entered the healthcare market by acquiring several businesses, through which it offers analytical and reporting systems for health insurers, provider organizations, and self-insured employers.
ECHAM is a general circulation model (GCM) developed by the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, one of the research organisations of the Max Planck Society.It was created by modifying global forecast models developed by ECMWF to be used for climate research.
