Abstract:
A computer system for verifying hail damage and/or detecting hail fraud includes a processor and a non-transitory, tangible, computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations including: (i) receiving at least one image of at least a portion of a rooftop; (ii) analyzing the at least one image to identify a plurality of damaged locations; (iii) analyzing damaged locations to determine a distance between each of the damaged locations; and (iv) determining, based upon the analyzing, whether the damaged locations are a result of hail damage by determining the distance between at least some of damaged locations.
