JRC Global flood depth-damage functions

Users of HydroMT-FIAT can directly and easily make use of the JRC Global flood depth-damage functions and replacement values [1]. The functions and values can be used only together with the hydromt_fiat_catalog_global.yml and by providing the following values in the configuration file:

[setup_vulnerability]
vulnerability_fn = "jrc_vulnerability_curves"
vulnerability_identifiers_and_linking_fn = "jrc_vulnerability_curves_linking"
unit = "meters"

[setup_exposure_buildings]
max_potential_damage = "jrc_damage_values"
unit = "meters"

The JRC Global flood depth-damage functions and replacement values are processed into an easy-to-use format for HydroMT-FIAT and stored in the hydromt_fiat/data folder.
