Frequently asked questions about our technical studies

Before requesting a study, you can find answers about meteorological reports, commissioning, timeframes, costs and professional standards.

Frequently asked questions

Meteorology and insurance

Common questions from individuals, companies, insurers and professionals about meteorological reports.

My insurer has already rejected the claim. Can a meteorological report still be useful?

Yes. If the rejection is based on a meteorological issue, it may be useful to assess whether additional technical evidence can clarify what happened at the loss location. A report does not guarantee that the insurer will change its decision, but a previous rejection does not prevent new technical evidence from being submitted.

Can wind or rainfall be studied if there is no weather station in my locality?

Sometimes. The absence of a station at the exact point does not necessarily prevent a study. Feasibility depends on the available information and the precision required by the question. The initial assessment is used to check this before a report is commissioned.

Is the nearest weather station always sufficient to decide whether the meteorological condition was met?

Not necessarily. A nearby observation may be very useful, but it must be assessed whether it adequately represents the loss location and the type of event. AgroClim analyses the case technically; contractual coverage is determined by the policy and the insurer’s claims process.

Does a meteorological report guarantee that the insurer will pay?

No. The report provides technical evidence on the weather conditions and their possible relationship to the case, but compensation also depends on the policy, the damage assessment and the claims process. If the dispute is legal or contractual, additional specialist advice may be required.

Hydrogeological studies

Does the study guarantee that I will find water?

The presence, yield or depth of an abstraction cannot be guaranteed before drilling. The aim is to reduce uncertainty and identify the comparatively most favourable area using the available evidence.

Will I receive a recommended location?

Where the evidence supports differences between areas, the study proposes a location and explains the recommendation. If no defensible distinction exists, this is stated explicitly rather than presenting one point as superior.

Does it include drilling or field tests?

The current service is a preliminary technical study. It does not include drilling, pumping tests or field campaigns. Any further checks needed will be identified in the conclusions.

Mapping and territorial analysis

Does a mapping report settle a boundary dispute by itself?

It can document boundaries, areas and changes to the land, but it does not automatically replace any necessary legal, land-registration or administrative procedures. The initial assessment clarifies which technical question can be studied.

Frequently asked questions

Commissioning and process

How the initial assessment, timeframes, quotation, contact and assignment terms work.

How does the free initial assessment work?

You tell us what needs to be analysed, where the case is located and what the objective is. We review the information and assess whether the work is technically feasible and what its scope might be. This first assessment is free and is not a complete technical study. The request carries no obligation and does not mean an assignment is automatically accepted.

How will you handle my request?

We offer prompt, personalised attention. We will review your request and contact you through your chosen channel. If we need more information, we will let you know before defining the study.

How much does a study cost?

It depends on the type of work, complexity and scope. Before any assignment begins, you will receive a fixed quotation. Some preliminary studies can have a straightforward scope and a relatively low cost.

Do you work throughout Spain?

Yes. We assess cases throughout Spain. The initial review establishes whether sufficient information is available and what scope the study can have.

Who can request a study?

Individuals, insurers, loss-adjusting firms, lawyers, companies, agricultural holdings, public authorities and other professionals or organisations.

How will we contact you?

You can call us on +34 91 344 92 98. In the request form you can choose a phone call, WhatsApp or email. We will use your preferred channel for the first reply about the case. You can also write to info@agroclim.es.

When and how is the study paid for?

The payment terms are always stated before work begins. Straightforward assignments may be carried out without an advance payment. For larger assignments, 50% may be requested on acceptance and the remaining 50% on completion, before the final technical documentation is delivered.

Frequently asked questions

Reports and professional standards

How the technical scope is defined, who signs expert reports and how conclusions are formulated.

Is my case assessed individually?

Yes. Every request is reviewed individually, and feasibility, scope and technical conclusions are determined specifically for each case.

Who signs AgroClim expert reports?

Expert reports are prepared and signed by a registered geographer expert with the Colegio de Geógrafos. The corresponding professional credentials are included in the assignment documentation and in the report itself.

Will the conclusions always favour the party commissioning the study?

No. The objective is to determine what can be technically supported by the available information, regardless of who commissions the work.

Does your question depend on the specific case?

Contact us and we will review the information and tell you which type of study may be appropriate.
