Live flood alert InsurTech platform Previsico has partnered with the new €4.3bn Meteosat Third Generation satellite system. This new system will allow Previsico to be more accurate and timelier with flood warnings, providing insurers and property owners with more time to mitigate flood impacts. The first satellite of the new generation was launched on 13 December and consists of three satellites in orbit 36,000km above the African equator. These will provide images of Europe every 2.5 minutes, including the first observations of lightning from space.
