The wdnr.gis package provides shortcut functions for working with various spatial layers on the WDNR ArcGIS REST API. Currently, these include: get_hydro_layer, get_watershed_layer, get_roads_layer, get_fmdb_site_layer

get_*_layer functions

These functions retrieve spatial layers that are noted by the middle term in the function name.

These functions generally have the same arguments and can be queried by county, sf_object, watershed, or a SQL where statement.
