Richard Gwilliam, Chief Operating Officer at Geollect, said: “As pioneers of new automated data-driven solutions, we’re really proud to have been selected to participate in this programme. We’ve successfully incorporated UKHO data for insurance clients, and recognise its potential to add real value across the blue economy.
“As well as accessing impactful data, we’re looking forward to working alongside experienced specialists from the UKHO. Between us, we can develop effective solutions to address challenges in a number of areas of maritime risk. Adding the powerful UKHO brand will turbocharge our product offering and we can really help bring their data to life.”
Mark Casey, Head of Research, Design and Innovation at the UKHO, said: “We’re delighted to announce Geollect as the winner of our Maritime Insurance Challenge, and are extremely excited to work with them over the coming months.
“Ultimately, insurance providers need access to the widest range of accurate data that can help them quantify the risks ships face. By integrating a wider range of geospatial information into its products, Geollect can help the sector develop a greater understanding of the maritime environment.”
