    \begin{itemize}
        \item The science can be difficult to grasp.
        \smallskip

        \item Scientific data/visualisations are often too abstract:
        \begin{itemize}
            \item ``80cm of sea-level rise? What does that look like?''
            \item ``Will it affect my house?'' {\tiny (also important cultural/ecological/historical… sites)}

% Lidar data for Dunedin (available through LINZ)
% DEM (Digital Elevation Model) data at varying resolutions for the whole country.
% Property values nationwide and property borders/tiles (the latter available through LINZ)
% Groundwater data from GNS Science
% They're looking at getting access to precipitation projections.
% Global IPCC seal level rises (which is very similar to regional sea level rise) 
% Infrastructure data available through LINZ/OpenStreetMaps - this could be used to model where sites would become inaccessible
% NIWA has storm surge/ coastal inundation models but apparently these are inaccurate/ still being redeveloped.
% Quyen suggested looking at drought data as well however STRAND doesn't currently focus on this.
