I don't even know if this is the right place to ask this question. I would like to download USGS stream gauging data for a couple of gauges on a daily basis- save the files to .csv files and append the nest days time series to this. Is there a way to do this automatically in R? thanks, -- Stephen Sefick Let's not spend our time and resources thinking about things that are so little or so large that all they really do for us is puff us up and make us feel like gods.

[R] USGS stream flow data automatic download R
Stephen, I don't have anything or know of anything in R to do this. But, we download USGS streamflow data routinely. I have a Perl script that will reformat the downloaded data into a R-importable format (basically two columns date/time flow value). Are you interested in mean daily or instantaneous streamflow data?
