Response & Recovery Intelligence

Building damage assessment before boots hit the ground

YardWatch processes post-disaster satellite imagery into prioritized, address-level damage reports. Governments allocate relief faster. Insurers triage claims without unnecessary field visits. Utility companies restore service to the most impacted areas first.

Disaster Preparedness Scale

We operate where the damage is real and the clock is running

The disaster management cycle has four phases. YardWatch is purpose-built for two of them: the critical post-event window where rapid, accurate damage intelligence determines how fast a country recovers.

Detection Accuracy

Building-level damage classification validated against manual surveys across three Caribbean hurricane seasons.

Structures Per Run

Process an entire parish or county in a single batch. No sampling, no gaps, every rooftop assessed.

$0

Per-Claim Field Cost Saved

Remote triage eliminates unnecessary inspections. Adjusters deploy only where the damage is real.

Pipeline

From satellite pass to dispatch queue

The Melissa pipeline runs end-to-end without manual intervention. Imagery in, prioritized damage reports out.

01

Ingest Imagery

Post-event satellite or aerial imagery is ingested within hours of capture. We work with all major commercial providers and government-tasked sensors.

02

Detect & Classify

The Melissa pipeline identifies every structure footprint, scores damage intensity at 0m/10m/20m radii, and assigns severity levels (critical, high, medium, low).

03

Geocode & Enrich

Each detection is reverse-geocoded to a street address, matched against policy databases, and enriched with reconstruction cost estimates using local building rates.

04

Triage & Dispatch

The interactive dashboard presents a prioritized queue. Adjusters, ODPEM field teams, and utility crews receive only the claims that need human eyes.

Trusted By

Deployed across government, insurance, and utilities

After Gilbert we waited weeks for damage reports. After Beryl, YardWatch had our parish prioritized in under six hours. That changes everything for ODPEM's resource allocation.

Dwayne Campbell

Regional Coordinator · ODPEM Jamaica

We reduced unnecessary field inspections by 62% in our first deployment. The loss-ratio estimates were within 8% of final adjuster assessments.

Renée Whitfield

VP Claims Operations · Caribbean Mutual Insurance

Our restoration crews were dispatched to the most critical infrastructure within hours, not days. YardWatch gave us the situational awareness we never had before.
