ICEYE and Munich Re Partner on Global Catastrophe Solutions

ICEYE, the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite data and natural catastrophe solutions provider, and Risk Management Partners, a unit of Munich Re, announce a new strategic global partnership to expand access to ICEYE’s natural catastrophe solutions. The collaboration integrates ICEYE’s flood solutions into Risk Management Partners' Location Risk Intelligence Platform, which empowers companies to assess and manage risks associated with natural hazards and climate change. The integration strengthens the platform’s real-time flood risk analysis and reporting capabilities before, during, and after events. The goal is to enable insurers, banks, real estate managers, and corporations worldwide to better assess and quantify flood impact and support faster, data-driven decision-making. From January 2026, ICEYE’s Flood Archive and Flood Early Warning solutions will be available via the Events feature of Location Risk Intelligence. ICEYE is the first commercial provider to supply precise event data to the Munich Re platform, giving customers immediate access to severity forecasts and reliable, rapidly delivered measurements of flood hazard extent and depth. Additional ICEYE products, including Flood Insights, Flood Rapid Impact, Hurricane Rapid Impact, and Wildfire Insights, will also be made available for resale by Munich Re to its customers globally. Anke Sielker, Head of Re/Insurance Practice at ICEYE, states: “At ICEYE, innovation is at the heart of what we do. Integrating our flood intelligence into Location Risk Intelligence, Munich Re’s powerful analytics platform, represents a major step forward in how leading-edge data and technology can be combined to enable insurers and businesses to better understand and manage the rapidly evolving flood risk landscape.” Christof Reinert, Head of Risk Management Partners at Munich Re, says the partnership provides more comprehensive insights into natural risk disaster exposure. Reinert adds: “The flood event data is a substantial feature that can even improve our Location Risk Intelligence offering. This gives our customers a decisive advantage, enabling active risk management to safeguard investments and operations, while also strengthening resilience.” The agreement marks a major milestone for ICEYE and establishes a scalable framework for embedding data-driven hazard and damage analysis into event response services worldwide.
