@ehinman or @jzemmels - let me know if either of you could take a look. We need to submit to CRAN (due to the broken test) by Aug. 25, I'm shooting for 8/18

@ldecicco-USGS I can take a look this week.

Looks good, @ldecicco-USGS. I found a few typos in the slides, but otherwise, minor comments/suggestions. Nice work! So exciting to see new functions come online that work well.

Is there an explanation as to why gwlevels are considered "field measurements"? As a non-hydrologist, this seems kind of random.

[ldecicco-USGS]

I think it's basically all discrete data that does go to the water quality portal.

Might be helpful to have a surface water example, too. These examples led me to check whether "field measurements" was JUST groundwater levels.

I tried this one for fun and it returned 86 values:

test <- read_waterdata_field_measurements(
  bbox = c(-94, 36, -90, 39),
  time = "2025-07-01T00:00:00Z/..",
  parameter_code = "00060"
)

I get what this means after thinking on it for a minute, but at first, I thought the function was going to return all the HUCs within 02070010, not all the sites within HUCs that start with 02070010.
