    description: >-
      The Revolutio Hazard API (formerly CHECKWIND.API) v4 provides site-specific
      wind, snow, ice, and seismic hazard parameters for structural engineering.
      Given a latitude/longitude and optional structure height, the API returns
      design parameters per AS/NZS 1170.2, AS 4055, ASCE 7, and other international
      standards. Uses a credit-based subscription model where only successful
      requests consume credits.
