rATTAINS provides functions for downloading tidy data from the United States (U.S.) Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ATTAINS webservice. ATTAINS is the online system used to track and report Clean Water Act assessments and Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) in U.S. surface waters. rATTAINS facilitates access to the public information webservice made available through the EPA.
rATTAINS is on CRAN:
install.packages('rATTAINS')
Or install the development version from r-universe:
install.packages('rATTAINS',
repos = 'https://mps9506.r-universe.dev')
There are eight user available functions that correspond with the
first eight web services detailed by EPA.
All arguments are case sensitive. By default the functions attempt to
provide flattened “tidy” data as a single or multiple dataframes. By
using the tidy = FALSE
argument in the function below, the
raw JSON will be read into the session for the user to parse if desired.
This can be useful since some webservices provide different results
based on the query and the tidying process used in rATTAINS might make
poor assumptions in the data flattening process. If the function returns
unexpected results, try parsing the raw JSON string.
state_summary()
provides summary information for
assessed uses for organizations and by integrated reporting
cycle.
huc_12_summary()
provides summary information about
impairments, actions, and documents for the specified 12-digit HUC
(watershed).
actions()
provides a summary of information for
particular finalized actions (TMDLs and related).
assessments()
provides summary data about the
specified assessment decisions by waterbody.
plans()
returns a summary of the plans (TMDLs and
related) within a specified HUC.
domain_values()
returns allowed values in ATTAINS.
By default (no arguments) the function returns a list of allowed
domain_names
.
assessment_units()
returns a summary of information
about the specified assessment units.
surveys()
returns results from state statistical
survey results in ATTAINS.
