USGS Three-Site Data Grapher

This is a data graphing utility that allows the user to build graphs of data from three USGS stations. Select the stations, the parameters to plot, and the starting and ending dates for the graph. Then, click the button labeled "Make Graph."

To plot time series or XY plots from one site, use the original Data Grapher. To compare time series by month or year, try the Data Grapher by Year. To plot specialized XY plots from one site, use the XY Data Grapher. To plot data from two sites, use the Two-Site Data Grapher. To plot multiple graphs from a single site, try the Multiple-Parameter Data Grapher. For tables rather than graphs, go to the Data Tabler.

Note: I see that javascript is not currently enabled in your browser. That's okay -- the Three-Site Data Grapher will work without javascript. I invite you to enable javascript for this page, however, because the Three-Site Data Grapher interface utilizes javascript to clarify and simplify data input.

Data from the first site will be plotted against the Y axis on the left side of the graph. Data from the second site will be plotted against the first Y axis on the right side of the graph. Data from the third site will be plotted against the second (rightmost) Y axis on the right side of the graph.

Step 1:

[Optional] Choose a basin from the drop-down list.

 

 
Step 2:

Choose the first site from the drop-down list.

Step 7:

Choose the parameters to plot.

Harpeth River at McDaniel, TN (03432100)
1st Site's Parameter:
    Apply a -day running average.
 
Harpeth River at McDaniel, TN (03432100)
2nd Site's Parameter:
    Apply a -day running average.
 
Harpeth River at McDaniel, TN (03432100)
3rd Site's Parameter:
    Apply a -day running average.
The "Daily Total" statistic is for rainfall data only.
 
Step 8:

Choose starting and ending dates for the data in the graph.

Begin Date: --   Include all data
End Date: --

 
Step 9:

Make the graph, or reset the form and try again.

  
Construction of the graph may take a minute or two.
