Insurance Nexus tools are the public technical views the platform releases on insurance and catastrophe: maps, model descriptions and sector scenarios, each with its time and space reference, sources, licence and uncertainty. Analysis runs in Nexus Foundry for authorized projects, and data that is not released is not available through these pages.

For analytical and data resources, in GRA's spatial-finance reading, the map opens on night lights and population density with night lights tonight from NASA GIBS, framed on the Gulf of Mexico coast; every other NASA layer, live feed and forecast waits in the layer list.
The interactive map needs JavaScript; the layer list and sources are below.

Layers and dates
Insurance Nexus tools are released only after review, with sources, time and space reference and uncertainty.
| Tool | In Insurance Nexus |
|---|---|
| Maps | Insured exposure against hazard layers |
| Models | Event set, vulnerability and financial modules |
| Scenarios | Realistic disaster scenarios and ORSA climate cases |
In Insurance Nexus, a released map states its hazard layer and resolution, a model its assumptions and validation, and a scenario its narrative, for example a hurricane replayed against today's exposure and a parametric trigger. Values shown before release are design values.
Analysis runs in Nexus Foundry for authorized projects. Public pages show released views only, each with its time and space reference and its rights.
Each term as this page uses it. Where a standard-setting body defines the term, the wording follows that body.
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Public-safe release | A recorded decision on the detail at which a layer may be published without exposing sensitive sites or people. |
| Coordinate reference system | The definition that ties coordinates to locations on Earth, catalogued with EPSG codes. |
| Model card | A short document describing a model's intended use, training data, performance and limits. |
The bodies and documents this page is read against. Status and editions change; each link goes to the issuing body.
The current service level is R0: information and enquiries. An enquiry receives a reference and names the next step; applications, payments, compute allocations and registrations open only when their team, terms and review capacity exist.
