The observed, reported, measured, or estimated economic loss for an event, on the basis and date stated by the source.
Sources that carry it
11 sourcesCommercial proprietary historical catastrophe database and portal with more than 30,000 records, 230+ countries and territories, quarterly releases, economic and insured loss, casualties, affected structures, and country breakouts.
Standing commercial contributory cargo-theft intelligence membership product. Credentialed members can search CargoNet's pooled U.S. and Canadian incident/alert archive, use real-time charts and maps, query recent thefts, visualize up to two years of theft history around customized routes, and access weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annual incident/trend reports. The database pools reports from law enforcement, insurers, transportation companies, manufacturers, retailers, and theft victims. The product supplies reported-incident intelligence and does not establish population-complete crime rates, calibrated prospective probabilities, customer shipment telemetry, or a lifted/recovery time unless explicitly reported.
Living global disaster-country flat table, 1900-present, updated weekly and available as a complete XLSX after registration. Commercial entities can buy a documented annual licence.
Event-level downloadable data file covering more than 200,000 domestic and transnational terrorist incidents worldwide from 1970 through 2020, with no incident file for 1993. The latest page citation is the 2022 release. Raw data are obtained after a brief active download form. Ordinary terms permit non-commercial research and analysis; commercial use requires an additional agreement. Collection stopped after partial 2021 work for lack of funding, so there is no promised current release cadence. START may correct records when new documentation appears and has no obligation to update.
Ongoing global historical database of related tsunami source-event and observed runup-location tables, spanning 2100 BC to the present. It emits event source/time/location, cause, validity, magnitude/intensity, maximum water height and historical effects plus runup observation location, arrival/travel time, measurement type, water height, horizontal inundation and location effects. Reporting is heterogeneous and is neither a completeness claim nor prospective hazard. Pin DOI 10.7289/V5PN93H7, retrieval date/query and API schema.
Pinned archival U.S. event dataset covering 403 disasters from 1980–2024. Costs are total direct economic losses from insured and uninsured sources, not insured losses. Pin to accession 0209268 v21.21, revised 2025-01-21.
Ongoing global historical database of significant volcanic eruptions from 4360 BC to present. An event qualifies if it caused fatalities, caused moderate damage (about USD 1 million or more), had VEI 6+, generated a tsunami, or was associated with a significant earthquake. HazEL emits event timing, volcano identity/location, VEI, fatality agents, direct eruption effects, combined associated effects, comments, and association IDs. It is not the complete GVP catalogue, a current-alert feed, or a prospective hazard model.
Authenticated commercial interactive lookup for historical natural-catastrophe data. External sign-up is offered; no reusable file, API, batch contract, current public schema, or current revision mechanics were verified.
Versioned county-level U.S. hazard-loss database offered through registered buyer-defined queries and licensed reusable CSV downloads. Property damage is not insured loss; crop indemnity is separately identified.
Open SPC historical severe-report database compiled from NWS Storm Data, currently covering U.S. tornadoes 1950–2025 and hail/damaging wind 1955–2025. Annual/full-period CSVs and SVRGIS path/initial-point shapefiles are one product family. Tornado files include raw state/county segments and de-segmented actual tracks. Magnitude means F/EF rating for tornado, inches for hail, and knots for wind with measured/estimated gust/sustained qualifier. Dated releases can correct and reprocess records, so retain release metadata. It is not a complete census, radar footprint, or building-impact dataset. SVRGIS creates a 0.0001-degree offset endpoint when no real endpoint was reported.
Standing commercial catastrophe-model product for buyer-supplied policies, portfolios, exposure locations, and attack scenarios. The U.S. component supports deterministic, probabilistic, and geospatial terrorism analysis; conventional-bomb, CBRN, and aircraft-crash scenarios; policy- and portfolio-level loss estimation; nationwide 1 km latitude/longitude modeling with finer ZIP resolution in 15 metropolitan areas; and a 500,000-year stochastic catalog. Model loss metrics and associated uncertainty are delivered through the Touchstone user interface and APIs. Touchstone is a delivery platform within this Source boundary, not a separate Source. Outputs are modeled risk and loss estimates, not current threat intelligence or a prediction that one premises will be attacked.
