Boston, MA--CDS Business Mapping, LLC., a leader in online property risk mapping, today announced AR, KY, NM, OK, TN, and UT have been added to the RiskMeter Online’s (http://www.RiskMeter.com) Distance to Fire Station Report. This brings the total number of states to forty-one!

This cutting-edge report uses routing technology to determine the distance to the three closest fire stations. By simply typing in an address, RiskMeter Online users can get a detailed report that returns drive distance to responding fire stations, names of the stations and staffing. What once was an error prone and time-consuming process can now be done in a matter of seconds.

“Regardless of the training, personnel or equipment at a station, if an insured location is greater than 5 miles from a station, the chance of a large loss is inevitable,” explains James Munson, Director of Consulting Services, CDS Business Mapping. “This report will immediately verify the distance from responding fire stations, and more importantly, it will help carriers decide early in the underwriting process whether a location is protected or not.” For more information, please contact James Munson at 860.854.6125 or jmunson@cdsys.com
