Who it's for

Keep the plant running — and know what to disclose

Flood exposure for plants, warehouses and suppliers — for business continuity, supply-chain concentration, insurance renewal and BRSR climate disclosure.

Free, with no login: browse the 100-year layer and check individual sites, enough to test the data against your own incident history before any commercial conversation. Multi-site screening, other return periods and climate scenarios are paid tiers — the free tier is a single point on the 100-year event, rate-limited.

The problem

A single flooded plant can stop a production line for weeks. The 2015 Chennai floods halted vehicle manufacturing across multiple plants, and the cost sat mostly in lost output rather than in damaged buildings.

Supplier concentration is the harder problem, because it is invisible. A firm can be well diversified commercially and still have three critical suppliers inside one floodplain.

And BRSR now expects listed entities to describe physical climate risk publicly, which requires a hazard basis rather than a narrative.

In practice

5 ways this gets used

Each one is a real workflow — who does it, the situation, the steps, and what comes back.

  1. 01

    Screening your own sites

    EHS / enterprise risk

    Plants, warehouses and depots were sited over decades, under assumptions nobody has revisited.

    1. Batch the site register through the layer
    2. Rank by modeled depth
    3. Take the top of that list into business-continuity planning

    What you get: A ranked exposure list across the estate, from one pass.

    POST /v1/portfolio
  2. 02

    Mapping supplier concentration

    Supply chain / procurement

    You are diversified on paper. The question is whether your critical suppliers are diversified geographically.

    1. Run tier-1 and tier-2 supplier addresses through the layer
    2. Aggregate by district to find where suppliers cluster
    3. Flag single points of failure where a cluster sits in one floodplain

    What you get: A supplier concentration view that commercial diversification does not reveal.

    POST /v1/portfolio
  3. 03

    Checking the routes in and out

    Logistics

    A dry plant that cannot ship is still a stopped plant.

    1. Check depth along the primary inbound and outbound corridors
    2. Identify the exposed segments rather than treating the route as one object
    3. Plan alternates for those segments specifically

    What you get: Route-level exposure — 12.8% of India’s mapped road network is inside the modeled floodplain.

  4. 04

    Supporting BRSR and climate disclosure

    Sustainability / reporting

    Physical risk disclosure needs a hazard basis an assurance provider can interrogate.

    1. Use the published 1% layer as the hazard basis
    2. Report the exposed share of sites by geography and depth band
    3. Cite the public method, limitations included

    What you get: A reproducible, independently sourced basis for the physical-risk section.

  5. 05

    Going into an insurance renewal prepared

    Risk / insurance manager

    At renewal the insurer has a view of your flood exposure and you generally do not.

    1. Screen the insured locations against the same class of hazard data
    2. Identify which sites drive the exposure
    3. Bring mitigation evidence for those sites to the negotiation

    What you get: Your own view of the portfolio before someone else prices it for you.

Free
Browse the map and check whether a location is inside the 100-year floodplain, under today’s climate. No login. Single-point API lookups are rate-limited and are not a production entitlement.
₹499
The Property Flood Report — a detailed flood-risk report for one specific property, with the NEER Flood Score: a single 0–100 rating for that exact plot, the modeled depth behind it, a satellite flood map and the method.
Organization
Portfolios, area exposure and map tiles.
Enterprise
All return periods, future-climate scenarios, batch reports, higher limits and SLAs. Bulk data delivery is licensed case by case.

Organization and Enterprise are commercial plans — see the API page or talk to us. Return periods other than the 100-year event, and climate scenarios, are not part of the free layer.

What this data will not do

This returns physical hazard, not business impact. Downtime, lost output and financial loss are your models, not ours. It covers riverine and pluvial flood, not cyclone storm surge, and it does not model the resilience measures already installed at a site.

We publish the limits next to the numbers. A risk map that hides its own weaknesses isn’t a public good.

Talk to us about site and supplier screening

We can screen a sample of your sites or suppliers so you can see the coverage on your own addresses.
