FAQs about Vexcel for SIU and Insurance Fraud
Q: How does aerial imagery support insurance fraud investigations?
Vexcel aerial imagery helps Special Investigation Unit (SIU) teams review property conditions before and after reported loss events. Investigators use Vexcel imagery to analyze property changes, verify reported damage, review surrounding conditions, and better understand whether claims align with visible evidence on the ground.
Q: Can SIU teams use historical imagery to verify claim timelines?
Yes. Vexcel provides timestamped historical aerial imagery that allows SIU teams to review how a property looked before a reported event. Historical imagery helps investigators compare conditions over time and verify whether visible damage or property changes existed before a claim was filed.
Q: How does before-and-after imagery help detect fraudulent claims?
Vexcel before-and-after imagery helps SIU teams compare property conditions across different collection dates to identify inconsistencies in reported losses. Investigators can review whether damage appears new, pre-existing, unrelated to the reported event, or inconsistent with surrounding impacts in the area.
Q: What types of insurance fraud can aerial imagery help uncover?
Vexcel aerial imagery can help support investigations involving pre-existing roof damage, unreported property modifications, inflated catastrophe claims, false storm damage reports, suspicious timelines, occupancy concerns, and other inconsistencies visible from aerial perspectives. Oblique imagery also provides additional context around structures and surrounding conditions.
Q: Is Vexcel imagery timestamped for evidentiary use?
Yes. Vexcel imagery is timestamped and archived, helping insurers and SIU teams review property conditions across different points in time. Historical and post-event imagery can support documentation, investigations, claims verification, and catastrophe-related reviews.
