New Functions
map_nhdplus()
works much the same asplot_nhdplus()
but creates a leaflet map rather than a static plot.get_nldi_index()
is used to call the NLDI web service to retrieve a hydrologic location.
Improvements
get_flowline_index()
andget_waterbody_index()
units and projection handling was altered. Defaults for thesearch_radius
input were changed. Coordinate reference system handling in geoprocessing now relies on the CRS of the provided points rather than the flowlines.get_nldi_basin()
now supports precise basin delineation via a logical "split" parameter as well as the option to retrieve un-simplified basin geometry.- All network-dependent functions in
nhdplusTools
now return a warning and NULL if the web servicee is unavailable or fails for other reasons. This is according to CRAN policy.
