  • Patent number: 11983673
    Abstract: A data analytics system may include a first risk relationship data store containing electronic records that represent a plurality of risk relationships between the enterprise and a first risk relationship provider. Similarly, a second risk relationship data store containing electronic records that represent a plurality of risk relationships between the enterprise and a second risk relationship provider. A back-end application computer server may include a data mining engine that analyzes a set of electronic records in the first and second risk relationship data stores to identify flags corresponding to risk drivers. A predictive analytics engine may then calculate a risk score associated with the set of electronic records based on the associated entity attribute values and the identified flags corresponding to risk drivers. An insight platform may automatically generate a recommended action for the enterprise to lower the calculated risk score.

  • Patent number: 11922509
    Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting, extracting, and categorizing structure data from aerial imagery following a major weather event are provided. The system processes digital images and weather data to automatically detect, extract, and categorize structure data following a major weather event. After receiving an indication of a region of interest (“ROI”) from a user, the system retrieves weather mapping data for the ROI and retrieves information related to attributes of structures within the ROI from a machine learning subsystem. The system then cross-references the property data, the weather data, and the structure attributes and assigns a risk rating to the structures within the ROI. Finally, the system generates and delivers a data package to the user.
