Fetches NHD features from either the high resolution or medium resolution version of the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) that intersect catchments containing TADA Water Quality Portal observations.

Usage

fetchNHD(.data, resolution = "Hi", features = "catchments")

Arguments

.data

A dataframe created by TADA_DataRetrieval() or the geospatial equivalent made by TADA_MakeSpatial().

resolution

Whether to download the NHDPlus HiRes resolution ("Hi") or medium NHDPlus V2 resolution ("Med") version of the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD). Default is "Hi".

features

Which NHD features to return: "catchments", "flowlines", "waterbodies", or any combination.

Value

A list containing all selected NHD features associated with the WQP observations of interest. Or, if a single feature type is selected, a single geospatial object instead of a list. Default is "catchments" only.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
tada_data <- TADA_DataRetrieval(
  startDate = "1990-01-01",
  endDate = "1990-01-15",
  characteristicName = "pH",
  statecode = "CO",
  applyautoclean = TRUE
)

nhd_data <- fetchNHD(.data = tada_data, resolution = "Hi", features = c("catchments", "waterbodies", "flowlines"))

} # }
