Hazard analysis
Hazard analysis enable you to identify the relevant catastrophe hazards for locations in your exposure data.

New Hazard Analysis pane
Options for configuring and running a hazard analysis on one or more exposure views or on a single contract in your project.
Terrorism profile options pane
Analyze exposure data for terrorism hazards.

Using Touchstone online Help
You can access the top-level or context-sensitive Touchstone online help from within the application or from the Client Portal. You can then search for content, bookmark pages, and generate output to other formats.
Import data from external sources
You can import exposure data, map layers, projects, and reinsurance packages from external sources into Touchstone databases.
Projects and exposure views
Projects are a useful way to organize your data. They contain exposure views that contain the data that you want to focus on.
Geospatial analysis
Geospatial analysis enables you to perform a deterministic risk analysis with your own view of risk on accumulations of property exposures and workers' compensation information in given areas exposed to natural and man-made catastrophes.
Exposure data validation
Verisk provides a reference containing information about Touchstone exposure data.
Data Quality analysis
The most effective way to assess and enhance portfolio-level or contract-level catastrophe exposure data is to use Touchstone's Data Quality diagnostics. These diagnostics enable you to determine the strengths and weaknesses of the exposure data you are using for analyses and supplement that data when it is missing or weak.

Terrorism profile options pane

Analyze exposure data for terrorism hazards.

You access the terrorism profile options pane when creating a new hazard analysis or from the Object Management > Hazard Template section in the Administration Console.

This pane includes parameters specific to the Hazard Analysis template, and elements common to all objects. To include this hazard in the template, select the Terrorism check box.
