#' Function to return data from the NWIS RDB 1.0 format #' #' This function accepts a url parameter that already contains the desired #' NWIS site, parameter code, statistic, startdate and enddate. It is not #' recommended to use the RDB format for importing multi-site data. #' #' @param obs_url character containing the url for the retrieval #' @param asDateTime logical, if TRUE returns date and time as POSIXct, if FALSE, Date #' @param qw logical, if TRUE parses as water quality data (where dates/times are in start and end times) #' @param tz character to set timezone attribute of datetime. Default is an empty quote, which converts the #' datetimes to UTC (properly accounting for daylight savings times based on the data's provided tz_cd column). #' Possible values to provide are "America/New_York","America/Chicago", "America/Denver","America/Los_Angeles", #' "America/Anchorage","America/Honolulu","America/Jamaica","America/Managua","America/Phoenix", and "America/Metlakatla" #' @param convertType logical, defaults to TRUE. If TRUE, the function will convert the data to dates, datetimes, #' numerics based on a standard algorithm. If false, everything is returned as a character #' @return A data frame with the following columns: #' \tabular{lll}{ #' Name \tab Type \tab Description \cr #' agency_cd \tab character \tab The NWIS code for the agency reporting the data\cr #' site_no \tab character \tab The USGS site number \cr #' datetime \tab POSIXct \tab The date and time of the value converted to UTC (if asDateTime = TRUE), \cr #' \tab character \tab or raw character string (if asDateTime = FALSE) \cr #' tz_cd \tab character \tab The time zone code for datetime \cr #' code \tab character \tab Any codes that qualify the corresponding value\cr #' value \tab numeric \tab The numeric value for the parameter \cr #' } #' Note that code and value are repeated for the parameters requested. The names are of the form #' XD_P_S, where X is literal, #' D is an option description of the parameter, #' P is the parameter code, #' and S is the statistic code (if applicable). #' #' There are also several useful attributes attached to the data frame: #' \tabular{lll}{ #' Name \tab Type \tab Description \cr #' url \tab character \tab The url used to generate the data \cr #' queryTime \tab POSIXct \tab The time the data was returned \cr #' comment \tab character \tab Header comments from the RDB file \cr #' } #' @export #' @import RCurl #' @examples #' siteNumber <- "02177000" #' startDate <- "2012-09-01" #' endDate <- "2012-10-01" #' offering <- "00003" #' property <- "00060" #' #' obs_url <- constructNWISURL(siteNumber,property, #' startDate,endDate,"dv",format="tsv") #' data <- importRDB1(obs_url) #' urlMultiPcodes <- constructNWISURL("04085427",c("00060","00010"), #' startDate,endDate,"dv",statCd=c("00003","00001"),"tsv") #' multiData <- importRDB1(urlMultiPcodes) #' unitDataURL <- constructNWISURL(siteNumber,property, #' "2013-11-03","2013-11-03","uv",format="tsv") #includes timezone switch #' unitData <- importRDB1(unitDataURL, asDateTime=TRUE) #' qwURL <- constructNWISURL(c('04024430','04024000'), #' c('34247','30234','32104','34220'), #' "2010-11-03","","qw",format="rdb") #' qwData <- importRDB1(qwURL, qw=TRUE, tz="America/Chicago") #' iceSite <- '04024430' #' start <- "2013-11-09" #' end <- "2013-11-28" #' urlIce <- constructNWISURL(iceSite,"00060",start, end,"uv",format="tsv") #' #' #
