It presents evidence on the usefulness of satellite imagery for damage assessment, particularly in the case of floods, fires and extreme weather events. It describes the technical capabilities of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2, as well as the benefits of integrating spatial information into risk models and supervisory processes.

It concludes by highlighting their potential to support more transparent, comparable and rapid decision-making in insurance and supervision
