Dean Analytic Schedule
Rating method for commercial fire insurance according to a predetermined schedule. Published by A. F. Dean in 1902, this method was the first comprehensive qualitative analysis procedure to take into consideration the numerous physical factors impacting the fire exposure. No longer widely used, because most companies have developed their own schedules or use schedules advocated by the insurance services office (ISO).
