WQX v3.0 Testing, Development and Updates #529

Open wokenny13 opened 1 day ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe: Services are still under development with WQP 3.0 beta and testing. There is interest in hearing from us re: testing if we notice issues with TADA workflows when we start our updates, especially if there are example workflows that might be useful for testing.

Describe the solution you'd like: Pushing the changes through in TADA in relation to the WQP 3.0 format will likely be held back for at least half a year (Around March 2025). Prior to this push, there will be a need to validate any impacts to TADA workflow and processes while the dataRetrieval package from USGS are being made so that there is a smooth, quick and efficient process downstream. There is a stable CRAN as well as a developer version on GitHub, and testing should be done with the GitHub version.

Additional context:

Please see GitHub link from USGS on updates, plans and documentation on dataRetrieval function.

dataRetrieval status updates: https://doi-usgs.github.io/dataRetrieval/articles/Status.html dataRetrieval development plan: https://doi-usgs.github.io/dataRetrieval/articles/wqx3_development_plan.html Lee Stanish said the dev version is using the 3.0 profiles but is still very much in development
