You can define an event set filter that enables you to run a standard catastrophe peril analysis for a user-defined subset of events in the event set that you have selected. For detailed information about defining event set filters, see Applying an Event Set Filter.

Note:

Consider the following when defining event set filters:

  • The Touchstone event filters use only the first landfall details for events that make multiple landfalls.

  • If you define multiple filter criteria, the analysis considers only the events that meet all the criteria you have specified.

  • If the event filter that you have defined excludes all events, or the filters that you have specified are not supported for the event set that you are running, the analysis proceeds and may potentially return no losses.

  • You can define rules and location filters only for earthquakes, tropical cyclones, and terrorism events.

  • For Wind events, if you define a polygon, Touchstone filters the events by making sure that the first landfall point is within this polygon.

  • You can define filters by model ID and event ID for all perils.

  • Once you have defined a filter, click Apply to save your changes before defining additional filters.

  • Touchstone 2021 includes a new weapon type, Medium Truck (10-ton TNT). In addition, Delivery Truck (6-ton TNT) has been renamed to Small Truck (6-ton TNT). Medium truck bombs are not supported within the 500k stochastic catalog; therefore, if you use filters with that weapon type, use them only against deterministic event sets.

The Event Filter window contains the following controls that enable you to define an event set filter:

Tab or Button

Description

Rules

Specifies the rules filters that capture the desired parameters of events in order to create an event set filter. See the Event Filter Rules Tab.

Locations

Specifies the location filters that identify a geographical area, defined by a series of latitudes and longitudes. The analysis considers events that occur inside this geographical area. See the Event Filter Locations Tab.

Events

Specifies the events filters that identify specific events for the analysis to consider. See the Event Filter Events Tab.

Apply

Enables you to save your changes without closing the Event Filter window.

Tip:

After defining a filter, click Apply to save your changes before defining additional filters.

OK

Enables you to save your changes and close the Event Filter window.

Cancel

Enables you to close the Event Filter window without saving your changes.
