+Name: Louisiana Watershed Initiative (LWI) Model Data
+Description: >
+  Geographic (land cover, land elevation, etc.), meteorologic (pluvial, wind, etc.), 
+  hydrologic (fluvial, tidal, etc.), hydrodynamic (water surface elevations, flow velocities),
+  and built environment (structures, levees, floodgates, culverts) data used as inputs to and 
+  outputs from numerical modeling software for the prediction of flood risk in stochastic and
+  probabilistic frameworks. This data was collected from open sources, such as from the 
+  National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) or the 
+  United States Geological Survey (USGS). The format of these data is modified to suit the
+  needs of the modeling program and software, and then used to predict flooding
+  in Louisiana across a range of scenarios. The modeling software used to predict
+  flooding which utilizes and creates this data is freely available from the 
+  United States Army Corps of Engineers Hydrologic Engineering Center’s
+  Hydrologic Modeling System (HEC-HMS) and River Analysis System (HEC-RAS).
+  All data is made public by the State of Louisiana for the benefit of its citizens.
+  This flood prediction data can be used by federal, state, and local
+  decision makers as well as private citizens to assess the flood risk they face and
+  make sound science-based decisions for response and adaptation.
