Assigns A Salt or Freshwater Indicator at the monitoring location or assessment unit level by either ATTAINS.WaterType or TADA.MonitoringLocationTypeName.
Arguments
- .data
A data frame containing at least one location column (TADA.MonitoringLocationIdentifier or ATTAINS.AssessmentUnitIdentifier) and at least one water type column (TADA.MonitoringLocationTypeName or ATTAINS.WaterType). Columns provided must match the columns selected for indicator assignment in the other function params.
- location_col
Character string. Options are "AU" or "ML". When location_col equals "AU", ATTAINS.AssessmentUnitIdentifier is used as the location column. When location_col equals "ML", TADA.MonitoringLocationIdentifier is used as the location_col. Default is location_col equals "AU".
- type_col
Character string. Options are "TADA" or "ATTAINS". When type_col equals "TADA", TADA.MonitoringLocationTypeName is used to crosswalk each location with a salt/freshwater indicator. When type_col equals "ATTAINS", ATTAINS.WaterType is used to crosswalk each location with a salt/freshwater indicator. Default is type_col equals "ATTAINS".
Examples
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Get test data with both freshwater and saltwater results
testdat <- TADA_DataRetrieval(statecode = "OR",
startDate = "2023-06-01",
endDate = "2023-06-15",
characteristicType = "Physical",
ask = FALSE)
# Assign saltfresh indicator based on TADA.MonitoringLocationTypeName,
# using TADA.MonitoringLocationIdentifier as location grouping
TADA.example <- TADA_SaltFreshIndicator(testdat,
location_col = "ML",
type_col = "TADA")
# Assign ATTAINS water types to test data
testdat.ATTAINSwattypes <- testdat |>
TADA_CrosswalkATTAINSWaterTypes()
# Assign saltfresh indicator based on ATTAINS.WaterType,
# using ATTAINS.AssessmentUnitIdentifier as location grouping
ATTAINS.example <- TADA_SaltFreshIndicator(testdat.ATTAINSwattypes,
location_col = "AU",
type_col = "ATTAINS")
} # }
