Intermap Technologies (TSX: IMP; OTCQB: ITMSF) (“Intermap” or the
“Company”), a global leader in 3D geospatial products and
intelligence solutions, today announced that Česká podnikatelská
pojišťovna (ČPP), a subsidiary of the Vienna Insurance Group, has
subscribed to Intermap’s innovative solution for determining the
market price of real estate properties.
Intermap and its partner Dataligence recently launched a
solution that combines Intermap’s data and analytics for
underwriting, reinsurance and claims with Dataligence’s world-class
pricing and real estate databases. ČPP, a long-term user of
Intermap’s Aquarius RMA, is the newest major EU insurance group
customer to adopt this innovative solution.
This advanced property valuation process meets the growing
demand for digitized property services in the Czech market,
improving transparency in real estate data.
By utilizing Intermap’s up-to-date flood and natural hazard maps
within its Aquarius RMA software, alongside Dataligence’s extensive
real estate data, this solution enables accurate online property
valuation. It processes comprehensive databases of flood, natural
hazard, and real estate information to streamline transactions,
providing insurers with reliable and precise property valuations
for underwriting purposes.
“We chose this innovative solution because it will make it
easier and more convenient for our clients to arrange insurance. At
the same time, we see our partners as technology leaders whose data
is accurate, robust and reliable,” said Michal Šimon, manager of
non-life insurance at Česká podnikatelská pojišťovna.
“We are always excited when we find new ways to use our
world-class pricing and real estate datasets,” said Milan Roček,
founder and CEO of Dataligence. “Last year, we made our innovative
tools available to the general public through the www.hypox.cz app,
and the continued integration of online pricing into insurance
companies’ systems embodies our vision for modern insurance and
real estate services, where clients don't have to worry about
anything, yet their assets are reliably protected.”
“Intermap’s solutions for the insurance market use proprietary
datasets that are integrated into insurance processes to provide
insurers with comprehensive tools that can be used throughout a
portfolio lifecycle,” said Patrick A. Blott, Intermap Chairman and
CEO. “Our state-of-the-art software, analytics and data enable
insurers to understand and underwrite natural hazard risks, then
leverage data intelligence to actively manage and reinsure risk
with attractive margins.”
Intermap’s services are more important than ever. According to
Resources for the Future, “the private residential flood insurance
market in the United States is currently small relative to the
NFIP. We estimate that private flood insurance accounts for roughly
3.5 to 4.5 percent of all primary residential flood policies
currently purchased.” With historic flooding recently, this
demonstrates the need for dramatic increase in coverage. CoreLogic
“estimates Hurricane Helene industry insured loss at $10.5B –
$17.5B. Uninsured losses are estimated at $20B - $30B.” Moody’s RMS
Event Response estimates total U.S. private market insured losses
from the recent Hurricanes Helene and Milton will likely range
between US$35 billion and US$55 billion. This estimate is for
insured losses associated with wind, storm surge, and
precipitation-induced flooding from these events.”
In Europe, the flood protection gap is 25%. Recent European
Commission studies “show that insurance premiums written should at
least be doubled to reach a harmonized level of penetration equal
to 50%.” Intermap is uniquely positioned to meet this demand and
address this need.
