comid |
numeric or character. An NHDPlusV2 COMID |
nwis |
numeric or character. A USGS NWIS surface water siteID |
wqp |
numeric or character. A water quality point ID |
huc12 |
numeric or character. A WBD HUC12 unit ID |
location |
numeric vector. Coordinate pair in WGS84 SRS ordered lng/lat (X,Y) |
origin |
named list. Specifying a feature type and ID (e.g. list("comid" = 101)) |
nav |
character vector. where to navigate from the starting point. Options include along the upper mainsteam (UM), upstream tributary (UT), downstream mainstem (DM) and downstream divergences (DD). You may select one or more of the abbreviations ("UM", "UT", DM", "DD"). |
find |
character vector. Define what resources to find along the navigation path(s) (see get_nldi_sources()$source). Can also include 'basin' or 'flowline', which will return the upstream basin of the starting feature or flowlines along the navigation respectively. The default is "flowlines". If you provide any other resource, AND want flowlines, then flowlines must be explicitly requested. |
distance_km |
numeric. Define how far to look along the navigation path in kilometers (default = 100) |
no_sf |
if available, should 'sf' be used for parsing, defaults to 'TRUE' if 'sf' is locally installed |
warn |
(default TRUE) should warnings be printed |
The function is useful for topology and location based feature discovery. A user must specify an origin feature, optional navigation direction(s) along the network, as well as features to identify along the navigated paths. Valid starting options can be given by one of the following arguments: comid, nwis, huc12, wqp, location, and start.
a list of data.frames if sf is not installed, a list of sf objects if it is
