whatNWISdata(siteNumbers, service = "all", parameterCd = "all",
  statCd = "all")

"uv","rt", or "iv"(unit values), "qw"(water-quality),"sv"(sites visits),"pk"(peak measurements),
"gw"(groundwater levels), "ad" (sites included in USGS Annual Water Data Reports External Link),
"aw" (sites monitored by the USGS Active Groundwater Level Network External Link), "id" (historical
instantaneous values)}

\item{parameterCd}{character vector of valid parameter codes to return. Defaults to "all" which will not perform a filter.}
