Satellite imagery is revolutionising the way insurers assess risk, track disasters and provide coverage. In this episode, Matthew Grant speaks with Berend de Jong, Global Insurance & Finance Lead at Planet Labs, about how high-resolution satellite imagery and geospatial data are reshaping the insurance industry. With a fleet of over 200 satellites capturing daily images of the Earth's surface, Planet Labs enables insurers to enhance flood and wildfire risk modeling, parametric insurance solutions and pre/post-loss assessments. The conversation explores real-world applications, including how instant satellite imaging played a key role in analysing the Los Angeles wildfires and German floods, and how parametric insurance providers like Floodbase leverage satellite data to develop innovative flood coverage solutions. Key Talking Points From consulting to satellites – Berend's career journey How Planet Labs' 200+ satellites capture daily Earth imagery The power of high-resolution imaging – down to 30-40 cm Tasking satellites on demand – costs, speed, and accessibility Optical vs. SAR satellites – when to use each technology Los Angeles wildfires case study – tracking fire progression in real time German floods case study – distinguishing between river and rain-driven floods Parametric insurance in action – partnerships with AXA, Swiss Re, and FloodBase Underwriting & claims insights – using satellite data for smarter decisions The future of satellite data – affordability, accessibility, and evolving use cases If you like what you're hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Matthew Grant on LinkedIn.

We are excited to head down to Austin, Texas today to speak again with Listener Rebecca about her trip down to Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort this past Spring Break! We talk about why they always chose this location for their stays and then discuss how they made this trip special with many "new to them" experiences like "Pick a Pearl" in Japan at Epcot, the Character Animation Academy at Rafiki's Planet Watch in Animal Kingdom, a day at Blizzard Beach Water Park, and more! Plus, we hear about a proposal gone wrong at a signature dining location as well, so you definitely don't want to miss that!

It's the middle of summer and it's time for a big update on what's going on with the parks. We take on three of them, Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom. We check out what's new in all three of these parks. We take a look at some things that really seem cool, and yet some things are very much out of order. From The Land to Pixar Plaza to Rafiki's Planet Watch, we've got lots to cover. And we examine some really great details that speak to the quality of the Disney theme park experience such as German cuckoo clocks, Moroccan tiled fountains and musicians in Harmabe playing the Kora Tinga Tinga. Join us for this big parks update and insights at Walt Disney World. __________________________________________________ My new book, A Century of Powerful Disney Insights, Volume I 1923-1973, The Walt & Roy Disney Years is available!  Also, check out my two of my other books, The Wonderful World of Customer Service at Disney and Disney, Leadership and You.

Have you ever found a hidden nook in Disney World that felt like it was made just for you? That's what we're unpacking in today's episode—a treasure map to the most serene spots in the most magical place on earth. Join us as we embark on a soothing ride aboard the People Mover in Tomorrowland, revealing our cherished oases away from the throngs, like the tranquil World Celebration Gardens at Dreamers Point and the meditative ambience of The Seas with Nemo and Friends queue. It's a conversation that meanders through the lush tranquility of Epcot's Japan Pavilion and the educational calm of Living with the Land, inviting you to indulge in the quieter side of the hustle and bustle.Who says theme parks are just for thrills and characters? We're taking relaxation to a whole new level, sharing secrets of the bioluminescent wonders in Pandora at night and the rustic, festive charm of Wilderness Lodge during the holiday season. Imagine the peacefulness of a train ride to Rafiki's Planet Watch, where learning about animal care becomes an unexpected retreat. We also delve into the hidden relaxation havens within Disney's resorts and dining experiences, like a hearty breakfast at Captain Cook's or the enchanting African-themed backdrop at Animal Kingdom Lodge. And let's not forget the vivacious yet serene boardwalk area, offering a more laid-back alternative to the buzz of Disney Springs.Wrapping up our magical journey, we stroll down the memory lanes of Hollywood Studios, paying homage to the nostalgia surrounding Gertie the Dinosaur and the timeless Star Wars Launch Bay. As the day wanes, we find serenity near the iconic Tree of Life, proving that the best Disney moments can come from simply sitting and savoring the sights and sounds.

There's a lot of hype following the big announcements at this year's Destination D23 Event at Walt Disney World. But what many have missed is that several things have changed since last year's big announcements. So what's real, what can be trusted and what's as clear as mud for the future of Walt Disney World?The Big News for Disney Parks from Destination D23 We learned as much from what was said as we did from what was not said. What's Coming to Disney's Magic Kingdom Park Hatbox Ghost will be back at the Haunted Mansion in November, but not in the way you may think. He will appear "wherever and whenever he pleases," implying that you may or may not see him on the ride and likely not in the same place each time. Country Bear Jamboree is changing, this time significantly. An all-new show is coming, complete with a whole new act and new songs. The new show will be modeled after the musical revues of Nashville, featuring some of your favorite country bears singing popular Disney hits in a variety of country music styles, including pop country, bluegrass, rockabilly and more. Disney offered a sneak peak by showing the recording session for Bear Necessities, which will be in the new show. Pirates of the Caribbean is getting new ambiance with the addition of a new tavern near the ride. Remember the Barker Bird who used to chat will guests at the entrance of Pirates of the Caribbean? He will be back and living at the new tavern, chatting it up with guests. Big questions are will this be a reimagining of Tortuga Tavern and will they be selling alcohol? What's Coming to EPCOT We know that Moana's Journey of Water is opening on October 16 (including a new location for the Moana meet and greet), but we now know that all of World Celebration will open in December. Yes, the walls are finally coming down.  Bigger news is that Test Track will be undergoing another complete overhaul and update (still with Chevrolet). No dates as to when it will close and for how long, but it is time for a refresh so this is welcome news. Disney promises the new Test Track will include the best elements from the original version along with new updates that point to a future world for vehicles. World Showcase Lagoon will be getting a new nighttime show entitled Luminous: The Symphony of Us. It will debut on December 5. What Will the Future Hold for Walt Disney World Parks? It got interesting here as they teased new information, but in some cases said less than they said last year. Here's what we know. Beyond Big Thunder Mountain at Magic Kingdom still appears to be happening, but they did not mention villains or anything else specifically. It still sounds like a new land with significant size and scale and it will include attractions, restaurants, shows and more. They did say that Dinoland at Disney's Animal Kingdom Park will be reimagined into a new land themed as the tropical Americas (geographically the space between North and South America). This land will land be Encanto themed, which removes Encanto from Beyond Big Thunder, as was hinted at last year. So Encanto Moves from Magic Kingdom to Animal Kingdom. Plus, an Indiana Jones area is likely coming to Animal Kingdom, potentially where Rafiki's Planet Watch is currently located.  Finally, It's Tough to be a Bug in the Tree of Life is being reimagined as a Zootopia themed attraction/show. Disney Cruise Line The seventh ship will be called the Disney Adventure. The new island stop in the Bahamas on Eleuthera will be called Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.--Thank You for Listening to the Disney Travel PodcastThank you very much for listening to this episode, Amelia and I hope that you enjoyed it.

The link is here in the show notes: Obi-Wan Kenobi | Official Trailer | Disney+ - YouTube What's exciting to me is that I saw a fan video that indicated that both Ewen McGregor and Hayden Christopher are open and talking about a season two of the show! Fingers crossed!Brenda: Over at Epcot, the transformation continues! World Celebration, which is formerly known as Future World, will have a hub divided into several different gardens. Also, it looks like lighting will be embedded into the pavement of the Epcot logo here. Additionally, the CommuniCore name is returning to Epcot! In the 80s and 90s, CommuniCore was a pavilion that changed into Innoventions. Well, Epcot will have CommuniCore Hall and CommuniCore Plaza.
