Case Study: CARTO strengthens global flood-risk insights with Fathom’s Global Flood Map

Fathom enabled CARTO to meet its customers’ demand for global and detailed flood-risk data

CARTO, the world's leading location intelligence platform, faced a challenge as its customers in insurance, real estate, and infrastructure increasingly demanded detailed, global flood-risk data to better understand climate threats to their assets. To fill this critical gap in its offerings, CARTO partnered with vendor Fathom to license its robust Global Flood Map.

Fathom provided CARTO with highly granular, 30-meter resolution global flood data covering all perils and future climate scenarios. This solution enabled CARTO's customers to save time by eliminating the need for custom flood models, conduct consistent global risk assessments, and perform in-depth analyses to understand financial impacts. By implementing Fathom's data, CARTO significantly strengthened its location intelligence platform, allowing its users to make more informed decisions to protect their assets from climate risks.
