Integrating water-related data to your existing systems or software is made as smooth as possible thanks to BWI’s well-documented API that comes with examples.
All-things-continental-freshwater data for risk/insurance underwriters and environmental engineering professionals thanks to basin digitization.
Integrating water-related data to your existing systems or software is made as smooth as possible thanks to BWI’s well-documented API that comes with examples.
Withdraw the most up-to-date water-related data from BWI, if need be in real-time.
At BWI, we ensure data confidentiality and apply data security best practices. No external parties possess information on what kind of water-related data is of interest to you.
Our API allows you to access the cartographic interface and deploy virtual stations. These 100% digital points offer river flow near real-time (hourly) estimates and 1-to-10-day forecasts, which can be complemented by an early-warning system.
Watershed maps are updated daily, including full hydrologic networks (water bodies of width over 10 meters) with peak river discharge heatmaps (resolution up to 30 meters) updated monthly.
We’re here to help parametric insurance risk modelling with 2 OGC(*) compatible products: raster tiles (spatial resolution: 100 meters) and risk index at watershed level computed from hydrological historical data, predicted climate variability impact and land usage.
Historical data is available to broaden the depth of your GeoDataHub to reinforce your parametric models, or to feed your environmental, urban planning, hydraulic or climate modeling software.
Near real-time freshwater data means we ship the data to you over as soon as it is available, at all levels: local, regional, national.
Continental freshwater data and forecasts are available to build your early warning systems and optimization processes on top of BWI’s API.

Adapt the coverage of the BWI inland water forecast tool to your needs, over time.
Your named customer success manager at BWI is always here to pick up the phone and answer your questions.
Reduce financial risk by evaluating and pricing insurance policies using dependable river discharge forecasts, guaranteeing sufficient coverage and optimized premiums.
Through preventive steps made possible by anticipated discharge information, expedite the processing of claims and lower losses while improving customer satisfaction and retention.
Forecasted flood data can be added to risk assessment models to improve underwriting accuracy while optimizing portfolio management and profitability.
Enhance reinsurance strategies by transferring risk and arranging affordable coverage through the use of discharge estimates to evaluate vulnerability to flood-related losses.
BWI offers support for parametric insurance through risk index maps derived from historical hydrological data, predictions of climate variability impacts, and land usage assessments.
BWI specializes in providing near real-time estimates and forecasts of inland surface water bodies around the globe. It combines in-situ data, spaceborne observations, and machine learning to feed and empower hydrological and hydrodynamical models. Through an online, subscription-based service, BWI aims to make scalable – across space and time – hydrological software to address climate change-induced water stress.
