river_hierarchy(river, type = "strahler", riverID = "riverID")

Examples

## Not run: 
library(hydrostreamer)
library(dplyr)

# load data
data(river)

# without prior routing
river <- river_hierarchy(river, riverID="ID")

# with routed network
routed_river <- river_network(river, riverID = "ID") %>%
    river_hierarchy()

## End(Not run)
