Some perils don't happen as single discrete events — they accumulate over a season. Year Long Reports track these ongoing, season-wide threats on GEO, updated throughout the year as new activity occurs.

Year Long Reports are used for perils where activity builds continuously across weeks or months rather than peaking in a single event. The primary example is US Wildfires, which tracks all significant wildfire activity across the continental United States throughout the fire season.

Rather than a separate event for each individual fire, a Year Long Report consolidates the season's activity into one place. You can see the cumulative footprint, compare activity across different periods, and assess your portfolio against the full season's exposure in a single report.

Year Long Reports are updated bi-weekly or monthly, depending on the pace of activity. Each update adds new fire perimeters, damage assessments, or intensity data as it becomes available from MIS analysts and source data providers.

Year Long Reports appear on the GEO homepage alongside individual event reports. Look for the report name in the events panel — Year Long Reports are labelled clearly by peril and year (for example, "US Wildfires 2026").

You can also find them using the search bar or by filtering the events panel by event type.

Will there be Insights available for Year Long Reports?
Yes, if you have portfolio data loaded on GEO. Location Insights and Policy Insights work the same way on Year Long Reports as on individual events. See [Location Insights].

Can I download the layers from a Year Long Report?
Yes. All layers are downloadable as shapefile, GeoJSON, or CSV. The As At Date is included in the download filename so you know which version you have. See [Downloading Layers].

Is this only for Wildfire event?
Currently yes, however we are looking into a similar product for US, Canadian European and Australia hail events.

Are Year Long Reports available for past seasons?
Yes. Previous years' reports remain accessible in the [Historic Events Archive]. This lets you compare current season activity against prior years.
