Open Exposure Data (OED)¶
OED is the open standard for catastrophe-model exposure data — a common format for describing locations, accounts, policy terms and reinsurance, so that exposure can be moved between models and tools without bespoke conversion. It is the exposure counterpart to ORD (results data), together forming the Open Data Standards (ODS) maintained by the ODS Steering Committee.
This site is the reference for the standard. The field and coded-value definitions are
generated directly from the authoritative oed.json in this repository, so they always match
the released specification.
What OED is, the file structure (Location / Account / Reinsurance), the exposure hierarchy, and how financial terms and perils are represented.
The generated field reference for every input file, plus the coded value lists (perils, occupancy, construction, country, coverage).
