Implementing Photo Documentation Standards in Restoration

Recently I sat in on an interesting discussion held during the Property Insurance and Restoration Conference (PIRC) on photo documentation standards. The participants of the discussion consisted of major restoration outfits, top-10 insurance carriers, major third-party administrator (TPA) firms, and leading technology vendors. The committee behind the discussion, of which I am a member, has been working on setting standards that all sides of the claim can agree on for passing photographic evidence of a loss between restorer and adjuster.
