-Many geoscientists working in geothermal do not actively code.  
-`Gala` was designed to be used by both astronomical researchers and by
-students in courses on gravitational dynamics or astronomy. It has already been
-used in a number of scientific publications [@Pearson:2017] and has also been
-used in graduate courses on Galactic dynamics to, e.g., provide interactive
-visualizations of textbook material [@Binney:2008]. The combination of speed,
-design, and support for Astropy functionality in `Gala` will enable exciting
-scientific explorations of forthcoming data releases from the *Gaia* mission
-[@gaia] by students and experts alike.
+Many geoscientists working in geothermal do not actively code and those outside 
+of oil and gas are not familiar with decision analysis. This VOI Streamlit
+ App allows geoscientists to visualize the distribution of their data and calculate
+ the value of imperfect (real!) data simply by upload two comma-seperated value (.csv) files. 
+ These two files represent calibrated data set: data assosciated with a positive and negative hidden geothermal
+  sites, respectively.
