Persistent Monitoring
Natural catastrophe solutions
Your one-stop shop for rapid hazard and damage data for hurricanes, wildfires, and flood events.
ICEYE’s large constellation of NewSpace satellites provides access to an entirely new level of persistent monitoring for any location on Earth – uninterrupted visibility, day and night, in any weather conditions, enabling a transformative capability for the P&C insurance industry.
At the core of our data is ICEYE’s advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) technology, powered by the world's largest SAR satellite constellation — more than 40 satellites strong and growing.
Unlike optical sensors, our SAR technology operates around the clock, capturing high-resolution imagery day or night, in any weather conditions, and even through smoke and ash. This ensures reliable, timely insights when insurers need them most.
With multiple imaging modes and a highly agile constellation, we provide rapid coverage of large-scale events with frequent visit rates, enabling insurers to track disaster progression in near real-time.
Our product roadmap is driven by the unique needs of the P&C insurance ecosystem. Our dedicated teams are led by experts from insurance, reinsurance, meteorology, hydrology, and GIS domains.
We generate near real-time NatCat intelligence through a combination of remote sensing satellites, observational ground truth, and sophisticated third-party data sets. Unlike traditional NatCat modeling and what-if projections, ICEYE uses real observation data, allowing us to deliver GIS-ready data layers your teams can trust.
Gain access to ICEYE's high-resolution hurricane impact data as structured geospatial files within 24 hours of landfall—often before skies clear.
Our solution includes a 30-meter resolution Rapid Impact heat map and building-level flood depth footprint, released as GIS-compatible files and summary reports. Updates are delivered every 24 hours throughout the event, enabling insurers to track evolving conditions in near real-time.
Respond to wildfires by leveraging fast and accurate building-level damage detection data, delivered every 24 hours during active wildfire events.
ICEYE Flood Solutions is the world’s first consistent, near real-time source of flood observation data. We keep our customers informed on what flood events we’re expecting, currently observing, or actively analyzing, delivering detailed data layers and summary reports for each analyzed event.

Pranav Pasricha,
Global Head of P&C Solutions, Swiss Re
“Flood Insight is a must-have solution to fulfill our responsibility as an insurance company to provide peace of mind to our customers in the event of any disaster. In addition, we see that this cooperation with ICEYE is not only contributing to the insurance claim process but also has wider societal impacts such as supporting lifesaving and rapid recovery efforts in disaster-prone regions throughout Japan, where natural disasters occur frequently.”
Junichiro Fujiki,
Manager at TMNF
“Before ICEYE, we had to rely on risk count within the often-delayed fire perimeter, but ICEYE enabled us to identify very quickly how many of those buildings were damaged. We used ICEYE intel to provide a transparent and accurate industry loss estimate ahead of our competition. Our insurance carrier clients used the ICEYE output to reach out to affected insureds and get a sense for their portfolio losses before ground truth observations.”
Adam Miron,
Head of Catastrophe Analytics at Juniper Re
