Release Notes

New Features

Add a new class called NHD for accessing the latest National Hydrography Dataset. More info regarding this data can be found here.
Add two new functions for getting cross-sections along a single flowline via flowline_xsection or throughout a network of flowlines via network_xsection. You can specify spacing and width parameters to control their location. For more information and examples please consult the documentations.
Add a new property to AGRBase called service_info to include some useful info about the service including feature_types which can be handy for converting numeric values of types to their string equivalent.

Use the new PyGeoAPI API.
Refactor prepare_nhdplus for improving the performance and robustness of determining tocomid within a network of NHD flowlines.
Add empty geometries that NLDI.getbasins returns to the list of not found IDs. This is because the NLDI service does not include non-network flowlines and instead returns an empty geometry for these flowlines. (:issue_nhd:[#48]{.title-ref})
