A new study released today by Canadian Water Network and the Insurance Bureau of Canada highlights the potential to improve the accuracy of flood hazard maps by incorporating richer data.
Flooding is a national-scale issue that is posing significant challenges for multiple sectors, including municipalities, the insurance sector and the federal government. In 2018, CWN and IBC brought these sectors together to enable and accelerate knowledge sharing.
Improving access to richer information is a significant opportunity for Canadian municipalities and insurers to better understand flood risk and take action.
