Event Set Management

Admininstation Console > Event Set Management

Touchstone supports international deterministic terrorism event sets. Your Touchstone installation includes event set files for each peril and region that your company licenses. The event list may include real-time event sets (EVI files) that you have downloaded from the AIR ALERT™ Worldwide website. You can select terrorism event sets during a Detailed Loss Analysis only if you have licensed the Terrorism peril for the appropriate countries/regions.

Users can create custom terrorism event sets by adding them from the Event Set Management pane, or by exporting Geospatial Analysis ring results to a Ring to Terrorism Event Set.

Note:

All users can create custom terrorism event sets. See Roles.

The Event Set Management pane enables you to perform the following tasks:

Note:

You cannot modify AIR event sets in any way; you cannot delete them or modify descriptive details about the event sets. You can only delete user-created event sets and modify descriptive details about user-created event sets (event set name, event set description, title, and comments).
