Parametric insurance enables automatic payouts when predefined event thresholds are crossed, without manual claims processing. The Databricks Geospatial Lakehouse supports this by unifying satellite imagery, weather feeds, exposure datasets, and catastrophe model outputs on a single platform. Using Delta Lake, Structured Streaming, H3 spatial indexing, and Spark SQL spatial functions like ST_Intersects, insurers can match insured assets to storm footprints at scale and trigger tiered payouts in near real time. Multimodal AI models validate damage from aerial imagery, Unity Catalog governs data access and lineage, and Delta Sharing enables secure data distribution to brokers and regulators.
