Creating an Insurance Report
Updated this week

Step 1: Select Your Custom Farm

Before generating an Insurance Report, you need to select the custom farm it will be based on. There are three ways to do this:

  • From the Map: Navigate to the farm on the map and left-click to select it. By default, custom farm boundaries are highlighted with a pink border, though they may appear in different colors if your company account uses status-based color coding.

  • From the Custom Farms Tab: Open the Custom Farms tab and choose a previously created farm.

  • Create a New Farm: Use the “Build Mode” feature to create a new custom farm. Read our detailed guide on building a custom farm here.

Once the farm is selected, the left-hand interface will appear.

  1. Go to the Reports Tab

  2. Click New Report

  3. The report editor UI will pop out on the right hand side, within the Report Editor UI, select Insurance Report

  4. Start customizing your report!

3. Customizing the Insurance Report

  1. Enter a Title for the report.

  2. Select the sections you want to include, simply left click the check boxes on the left hand side of the section you want to disable:

    • Overview

    • Structures

    • Cover

    • Location

    • Risk


4. Editing Report Sections

Overview (Editable)

This section is automatically populated with key property data but can be manually edited as needed. Editable fields include:

  • Policy ID

  • Property Name

  • Address

  • Property Description

  • Total Area (ha)


Structures (Editable)

The Structures tab allows you to add, edit, or remove structures on the property. You can input key details to ensure accurate insurance assessments, including:

  • Status: Select whether the structure is Insured or Uninsured.

  • Cover: Choose between Replacement or Indemnity coverage.

  • Type: Define the structure type (e.g., silo, machinery shed, sheep yard).

  • Area (sq. m): Adjust the area if exact measurements are available.

  • Additional Details: Input Construction Year, Condition, Value, Insured Value, and Description for each structure.

Adding a New Structure

  1. Click + Add Structure.

  2. Use Place Structure to pinpoint its exact location on the map.


💡 Custom Inputs: The Structures tab can also be used creatively by manually adding "Structures" to track additional details such as soil types, crop information, or machinery lists. You can then upload relevant photos and provide descriptions, tailoring the report to fit your specific workflow needs.


Adding Images to Structures

  1. Click the Gallery button in the top-right corner of the Structures tab.

  1. Click Upload to open the image upload interface.

  2. Choose how to upload images:

    • From Your Phone: Scan the QR code to upload images directly from your mobile device.

    • From Your Computer: Select files from your desktop to upload manually.

4. Assign images to structures:

  • Manual Assignment: Drag and drop images onto the corresponding structure.

Cover (Non Editable)

  • Displays highlighted boundary lines to outline the property area included in the report.


Location (Non Editable)

  • Auto-fills the three nearest townships along with their distance (km).

  • Includes the nearest major urban center for reference.

  • Displays a satellite image of the property.

  • You can add additional details or turn this section off by unticking the checkbox.


Risk (Non Editable)

  • Provides a risk assessment based on the property’s location.

  • Includes risk factors such as:
    🔴 Drought Stress
    🔵 Flood Risk
    🔥 Bushfire Risk

5. Viewing, Downloading, and Sharing the Report

Once all sections are completed, you can finalize your report:

  • Preview the Report: Click the Preview button (next to the Generate Report button) to review how the report will look before generating the final PDF.

  • Generate the Report: Click Generate Report on the right side of the Report Editing interface.

  • Download & Access: The report will be generated as a PDF and sent to your email. The download link remains valid for 7 days—after this period, you’ll need to regenerate the report if you need another copy. To avoid any issues, we recommend saving the file in a secure location.
