Say I have a data.frame with columns called PLACE and MEASURE others. The
one I call PLACE would be a factor containing the locations you are
measuring at. I mean it would be character strings of your N places but
the factors would be made in the order you want the results in. The
MEASURE variable in each row would contain one of the many measures at
that location. You probably would have other columns like DATE.

Avi/Jeff/Burt,

Here are the head and tail of one data file:

(Water years begin October 1st and end September 30th.)

The other three locations have the same format.

The boxplots for each PLACE (site_nbr) should summarize all MEASURE (cfs)
values for all recorded data (DATE).

The R tibbles have a datetime column which could be the DATE.

If I assemble all 4 sites into a single tupple I suppose it would have three
columns PLACE (the grouping factor), DATE (on the x axis), and MEASURE (cfs on
the y axis) and each boxplot would be grouped so the
command would be:

disc_plot <- ggplot(df, aes(x = group, y = cfs)) +
        geom_boxplot()

Is this close?

Thanks,

Rich
