USGS Multiple-Parameter Data Grapher

This is a data graphing utility that allows the user to plot multiple graphs of data from selected USGS stations. Select the station, the parameter(s), the type of data, and the starting and ending dates for the graph(s). Then, click the button labeled "Make Graphs."

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 time series from three sites, use the Three-Site 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 Data Grapher will work without javascript. I invite you to enable javascript for this page, however, because the Data Grapher interface utilizes javascript to clarify and simplify data input.

Step 1:

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

 
 
Step 2:

Choose a site from the drop-down list.

 
 
Step 3:

Select the parameters to graph.

 Measurements at this site are available here at 15 minute intervals.
 Recent data are provisional and subject to revision.
 
Step 4:

Choose the type of data for each graph.


The "Daily Total" is for use with rainfall data only.
Selecting "Daily Total" will cause daily maxima to be
computed for any other selected parameters.

Do you wish to apply a running average to the data?
If so, check the box and select the length of the average:

Apply a running average with a length of days.
 
Step 5:

Choose starting and ending dates for each graph.

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

 
Step 6:

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

  
Construction of the graphs may take a minute or two.
