Norwich Union is the largest insurer in the United Kingdom (UK) with a market share of approximately 20 percent, insuring more than 700,000 businesses, one in five motor vehicles, and one in five households in the UK. The insurance company wanted to accurately identify properties at risk from flooding and predict to what extent they would be affected. Norwich Union recognized that ESRI ArcView software offered a robust enterprise-level GIS platform that could accommodate the vast quantities of data generated, perform complex analysis, and be easily used by a new team of personnel. Norwich Union sees the floodplain modeling solution as bringing huge benefits to its customers and, in turn, to the organization.
