Quantify United States County-Level Flood Measurements
Description
Quantifies United States flood impacts at the county level using
United States Geological Service (USGS) River Discharge data for the USGS
API. This package builds on R packages from the USGS, with the goal of
creating county-level time series of flood status that can be more easily
joined with county-level impact measurements, including health outcomes.
