The single largest source of dams in the United States is the
National Inventory of Dams (NID) <http://nid.usace.army.mil> from the US
Army Corps of Engineers. Entire data from the NID cannot be obtained all at
once and NID's website limits extraction of more than a couple of thousand
records at a time. Moreover, selected data from the NID's user interface
cannot not be saved to a file. In order to make the analysis of this data
easier, all the data from NID was extracted manually. Subsequently, the raw
data was checked for potential errors and cleaned. This package provides
sample cleaned data from the NID and provides functionality to access the
entire cleaned NID data.
