get_unit_info: Search irmaservices.nps using any piece of information.

In nationalparkservice/DSTools: Collection of Functions to read and manipulate information from the NPS DataStore

Search irmaservices.nps using any piece of information.

Description

'get_unit_info' accesses info from irmaservices.nps.gov and allows you to search a Park Unit based on any number or combination of parameters. Not all parameters need to be specified, but it is probably worth specifying which parameters ARE specified, e.g. get.unitInfo(LifeCycle="Inactive"). If the arguments are not specified, they will default to the order supplied in the function.

Usage

get_unit_info(
  code = NULL,
  park = NULL,
  life_cycle = NULL,
  network_code = NULL,
  net_name = NULL,
  region_abb = NULL,
  region = NULL,
  state = NULL
)

Arguments

code	defaults to NULL. Is a case-insensitive string. It typically is 4 letters long and typically does not include numbers but may be longer, shorter, or include special characters such as "-".
park	defaults to NULL. Is a case-insensitive string. It will search for any subset of the FullName or parks or park units
life_cycle	is a case-insensitive string that will filter search results based on LifeCycle status. Currently acceptable values are: * "Active", "Inactive" or "Pending"
network_code	defaults to NULL. Is a case-insensitive string for the network code (or some subset of it). Note: not all park units have Network designations.
net_name	defaults to NULL. Is a case-insensitive string containing of the network name (or some subset of it). Note not all park units are associated with networks.
region_abb	defaults to NULL. Is a case-insensitive string containing the region abbreviation (or some subset of it), e.g.IMR for Intermountain Region. Not all park units are associated with a region.
region	defaults to NULL. Is a case-insensitive string of the region name (or some subset of it). Not all park units are associated with a region.
state	defaults to NULL. Is a case-insensitive search of the park unit's state. States are indicated using 2-letter abbreviations. Park units may span multiple states. Not all parks have state designations.

Value

one data frame to the global environment. May contain multiple matches. Sufficient detail should be provided to determine the intended Park Unit's name.
