#' Get the Measurements of a Phenomenon on opensensemap.org
#'
#' Measurements can be retrieved either for a set of boxes, or through a spatial
#' bounding box filter. To get all measurements, the \code{default} function applies
#' a bounding box spanning the whole world.
#'
#' @param x Depending on the method, either
#'   \enumerate{
#'     \item a \code{chr} specifying the phenomenon, see \code{phenomenon}
#'     \item a \code{\link[sf]{st_bbox}} to select sensors spatially,
#'     \item a \code{sensebox data.frame} to select boxes from which
#'       measurements will be retrieved,
#'   }
#' @param ... see parameters below
#' @param phenomenon The phenomenon to retrieve measurements for
#' @param exposure Filter sensors by their exposure ('indoor', 'outdoor', 'mobile')
#' @param from A \code{POSIXt} like object to select a time interval
#' @param to A \code{POSIXt} like object to select a time interval
#' @param columns Select specific column in the output (see openSenseMap API documentation)
#' @param endpoint The URL of the openSenseMap API
#' @param progress Whether to print download progress information
#'
#' @return An \code{osem_measurements data.frame} containing the
#'   requested measurements
