USEPA / EPATADA

This R package can be used to compile and evaluate Water Quality Portal (WQP) data for samples collected from surface water monitoring sites on streams and lakes. It can be used to create applications that support water quality programs and help states, tribes, and other stakeholders efficiently analyze the data.

HUC/catchment map for querying WQP #383

Open cristinamullin opened 5 months ago

cristinamullin commented 5 months ago

Describe the solution you'd like

Users would like to select catchments or HUCS on a map. The feature should include option to include (or not) upstream or downstream catchments/HUCs, and to include or exclude catchments/HUCs that intersect the tribal land boundary (not a WQP filter) or state boundary (WQP filter that user can select).

Describe alternatives you've considered

See example tool R8 (WY/MT): https://tetratech-wtr-wne.shinyapps.io/WQP_DataTool6/ HUC query map HUC selections

Additional context

This is related to other mapping issues and could potentially be worked on at the same time. Note that you can do this within EPA’s How’s My Waterway (https://mywaterway.epa.gov/) now, but we want to add this functionality to the TADA package and shiny app.

Reminders for TADA contributors addressing this issue

New features should include all of the following work:

Would we only want to use this map for querying the WQP? Or should it be usable for filtering after data retrieval as well?

cristinamullin commented 2 weeks ago

It could potentially be used for both, but I am not sure if we'd want to incorporate that filtering feature into Module 1 (maybe as part of the site review tab) or module 2.
