Insurance claim documentation

Aerial Documentation for Your Insurance Claim File

lossmap puts an aerial record of the property into the claim file: photo and video of the roof and the structure, flown by a vetted FAA Part 107 pilot to the shot list for that type of loss, delivered as one branded web gallery you can send by link. Adjuster, carrier, and contractor accounts can set up net-30 billing.

A claim file is only as good as what is in it. lossmap puts a documented aerial record of the property into that file: photo and video of the roof and the structure, organized the same way every time, delivered as one online gallery you can send by link.

What a claim file needs from the air

The whole roof in one view. The exterior from every side. Damage photos with a scale reference, so the size of what you are looking at is not a guess. A set of files that arrives already organized, instead of a large folder of camera filenames.

How a lossmap gallery maps to that

The gallery is organized into roof, cardinal obliques, detail, damage findings, and video. The permalink goes to whoever needs to see it: the adjuster, the underwriter, the contractor. It can be password-protected. A one-click bundle holds every file.

Add what the file needs, quoted with the job: an orthomosaic map for the whole roof as one stitched, scaled image, an annotated damage report as a marked-up PDF of the key findings, or an evidence package with the original geotagged files and flight logs.

For adjusters and carriers

A shot list for each type of loss, so files look alike from claim to claim. A gallery link that can be dropped into the file. Team accounts with shared, net-30 billing, and multi-property and CAT dispatch. The order form has a field for the claim number, so the gallery is tied to the claim it belongs to. To set up an account, email flynow@lossmap.io.

For policyholders

Order a shoot before the adjuster arrives, before contractors climb the roof, and before you take bids. You get your own record of the property, and you can send the same link to everyone who needs it. Nothing is charged when you order. After we review the job we send a quote, then a secure card payment link, an invoice on net-30 terms for approved companies, or a bill to an adjuster account on file.

Before things change

Repairs, tarps, and weather change what a property looks like. A dated aerial record fixes the condition at the time of the flight. If a tree is on the roof and it is safe to leave it, fly first, then remove: once it is cut off, nobody can show where it hit.

What lossmap does not do

lossmap documents the property. It does not adjust the claim, write the estimate, or decide coverage. Those stay with the adjuster and the carrier, and whether a carrier accepts the imagery is the carrier’s decision.

Where the family sleeps is a separate question

When a home is not livable, the claim usually needs housing too. That is our parent company’s work, and it has its own pages: temporary housing for insurance adjusters and carriers, what to do after a storm, and on-site RV housing. A homeowner who needs household items for a temporary place can also see Temporary Housewares.

FAQ

Questions about claim documentation.

What does aerial documentation add to an insurance claim?

It gives the file a consistent visual record of the roof and the structure: the roof from straight overhead, four cardinal obliques, close detail matched to the type of loss, damage findings with scale references, and video, organized in one gallery. It supports the claim file. It does not replace the adjuster’s judgment.

Can I send the gallery to my adjuster or contractor?

Yes. Every gallery has a permalink you can forward to adjusters, underwriters, and contractors, optionally password-protected, and there is a one-click download bundle of every file.

Can the claim number go on the order?

Yes. The order form has a field for a claim or reference number, and it stays with the order and the gallery. Adjuster, carrier, and contractor accounts can set up net-30 billing. Email flynow@lossmap.io to set up an adjuster account.

Should I clear the tree or debris before you fly?

No, if it is safe to leave it. Fly first, then remove. Once a tree is cut off a roof, nobody can show where it hit, what it is resting on, or how far it went through.

Do you handle temporary housing for the claim too?

lossmap does not. It documents the property. Housing for a displaced family is handled by our parent company, 1st Choice Living, which has its own pages for adjusters, carriers, and policyholders.
