To discover what data is available for a particular USGS site, including measured parameters, period of record, and number of samples (count), use the \texttt{getDataAvailability} function. It is possible to limit the retrieval information to a subset of types (\tttext{"}dv\tttext{"}, \tttext{"}uv\tttext{"}, or \tttext{"}qw\tttext{"}). In the following example, we limit the retrieved Choptank data to only daily data. Leaving the \tttext{"}type\tttext{"} argument blank returns all of the available data for that site.
