Introduction to the waterdata module of dataretrieval

The waterdata module will replace the nwis module as the primary set of data download functions for USGS water data. This Jupyter notebook covers a basic introduction to module functions and usage.

• Using the waterdata module to pull data from the USGS Water Data APIs

Simple uses of the dataretrieval package

• Examples from the Readme file on retrieving NWIS data
• Retrieving site information

Example Notebooks from Hydroshare

A set of Jupyter Notebooks with Python code examples on how to use the dataretrieval package are available on the Hydroshare platform. We provide executed versions of these notebooks below; to download the .ipynb files for your own use, either visit the Hydroshare repository, or navigate to the demos/hydroshare subdirectory of the dataretrieval project repository.
