Flood Intel Platform

Previsico's Flood Intel Platform delivers operational, near-real-time surface-water (plus river and coastal) flood forecasting up to 48 hours ahead at street and property level, commercialising nowcasting research from Loughborough University. It couples live weather feeds with hydrodynamic surface-water models to issue warnings for insurers, infrastructure operators, utilities and the public sector, expanding from the UK internationally. A narrow, operational forecasting specialist, distinctive for live flood warning and loss prevention rather than the long-range scenario assessment most climate-risk tools in this catalogue provide.
