Get the Full Context

Post-disaster shows you what’s there today — while regularly updated surveys give you the full story to understand the true impact of damage. Nearmap captures fresh aerial imagery across Australia up to six times annually, covering up to 95% of the population across more than 448,000 square kilometres. When combined with our pre-catastrophe captures of areas prone to severe weather, historical imagery provides a contextual snapshot of property conditions prior to an event — allowing informed decisions to calibrate your post-disaster response.
