The paper illustrates the different methodological steps required during the extraction and cleansing of the data --which required the development of Python scripts--, the use of time series analysis for obtaining reliable forecasts, and the use of machine learning models for designing customized insurance coverage from the identified patterns and predicted values. 978-84-18465-12-3 http://hdl.handle.net/10259/6876 10.36443/10259/6876 Ferrocarriles Railways Using Data Analytics & Machine Learning to Design Business Interruption Insurance Products for Rail Freight Operators
