Touchstone 11.0 API Reference
ApplyDisaggregation Property (DetailedLossAnalysisOptions)


Air.Services.Proxy Assembly > AIR.Services.LossAnalysis.Data Namespace > DetailedLossAnalysisOptions Class : ApplyDisaggregation Property
(Optional) Specifies whether to apply disaggregation for this Detailed Loss Analysis.
Syntax
Public Property ApplyDisaggregation As Boolean
Dim instance As DetailedLossAnalysisOptions
Dim value As Boolean
 
instance.ApplyDisaggregation = value
 
value = instance.ApplyDisaggregation
public bool ApplyDisaggregation {get; set;}
Remarks
Disaggregation distributes aggregate (coarse resolution) Location data down to a finer resolution to Locations where exposures are likely to be located based on Lines of Business represented in AIR's Industry Exposure Database (IED). This process enables Touchstone® to apply policy terms appropriately across an entire (distributed) region rather than applying them only across the geographic centroid of the region. The appropriate application of policy terms across an entire (distributed) region generates more accurate loss results for risk Locations with poor quality data because it avoids analysis of aggregate exposures at a single-point location.

When you have aggregate exposure data, AIR recommends that you always run your analysis with ApplyDisaggregation set to True because it provides more accurate loss results.

Note: In Touchstone, disaggregation is an analysis option, not an import option (as it was in CLASIC/2). You can choose whether to apply disaggregation during an analysis. The default is False. However, Touchstone ignores the disaggregation setting for all countries except Central America, Mexico, Japan, and China. For example, if the exposure data includes Canadian CRESTA or FSA centroid Locations, and you specify False for the ApplyDisaggregation property, Touchstone still disaggregates the data.
