For instance, in the case of a car accident, where the policy owner could snap a photo of the damage to their vehicle and upload it to the app of the insurance company. This is likely to be utilised as a confirmation of the occurred incident and kept in the blockchain network, after which the smart contract receives an instruction to pay out ab amount to the policy owner.
