Understanding the current and future conditions in the Arctic is crucial for marine insurance companies. The region is experiencing significant changes due to climate change and increasing activity which impacts the risks and hazards associated with marine operations. With the lack of statistical incident data found in other waters, satellite data may provide insurance companies with information on the changing ice, sea and climate conditions, which can help to inform risk assessments and mitigation strategies. This information can help insurers to develop more accurate models for predicting risk and to adjust premiums accordingly. By utilizing satellite data, marine insurance companies can better assess the risks associated with operating vessels in the Arctic and provide more effective insurance coverage for their clients.
