#' HAZUS Depth-Damage Curves
#'
#' HAZUS depth-damage reference curves showing the relative damage that a
#' structure receives based on the flood depth from a given storm event.
#' Damage estimates range from 0 to 1 and are referenced to the current
#' structure value (replacement cost). A value of 0 indicates no damage
#' whereas a value of 1 indicates complete damage (equivalent to the
#' replacement cost of the structure). Note that curves apply to structures
#' only (not content) and may represent an oversimplification for individual
#' units. Depth-damage curves in this dataset are limited to short,
#' salt-water exposure from the USACE - New Orleans curve database.
