I am trying to call water level data from NOAA using the rnoaa library. Water level data is restricted to 31 days and I need data across multiple months. I found the following 'while' loop when looking for similar questions: Looking for a solution in R to loop through a date range to get climate data from NOAA API
When I run the code below, I get the following error:
Error in if (req_dur > maxdur) { : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed
beginDate <- as.Date('2022-01-01')
endDate <- as.Date('2022-05-01')
date <- beginDate
while (date <= endDate){
water_level <- coops_search(
station_name = 8418150,
begin_date = date,
end_date = date + 1,
product = 'water_level',
datum = 'MHW',
units = 'metric',
time_zone = 'lst')
date <- date + 1
}
I've tried changing the beginDate and endDate parameters to the following and still get the same error:
beginDate<- as.Date("20220101",format = "%Y%m%d")
endDate <- as.Date("20220501",format = "%Y%m%d" )
Any suggestions? Thank you!
