 Hurricane Maria, a Category 5 storm, struck Puerto Rico on September 20, 2017, claiming over 3000 lives. 
-This example assesses wind-induced damage for Vieques Island, Puerto Rico, using National Institute of Standards and Technogology (NIST) peak gust wind speed data. Inventory data for about 900 wood residential buildings was created using a Python Notebook and BRAILS, mapping the inventory to a HAZUS-type damage assessment in R2D. The final R2D results include damage and loss estimations and building information models based on the rulesets.

 #. **Building Inventory:** The building inventory for Puerto Rico is limited. However, using NHERI-SimCenter Building and Infrastructure Recognition using AI at Large-Scale `(BRAILS) <https://github.com/NHERI-SimCenter/BRAILS>`_ capabilities, it is possible to obtain building footprints and their associated attributes for a given location. Brails was implemented in a Jupyter Notebook to:
