Holborn Corp, an independent reinsurance brokerage firm formed in 1920, started developing Eye in the Sky as it researched what would happen if information from the search engine Google Earth was tied in with clients' data. Map information appears in a series of layers that lets the client input information on what it deems important. A zoom feature lets them review an agent's territory down to the ZIP code, and identify natural hazards or secure locations. Holborn upgraded Eye in the Sky with navigational tools that allow the client to assess new risks, look at a subset of data and pull up satellite images as it receives client suggestions.
