Soil and Landscape Grid National Soil Attribute Maps - Soil Colour (3" resolution) - Release 1

ARCHIVED

Created 20/10/2024

Updated 21/01/2025

We used Digital Soil Mapping (DSM) technologies combined with collations of observed soil colour data from TERN's Soil Data Federation System, to produce surface and subsoil maps of soil colour at a 90 m resolution. The map gives an estimate of the spatial distribution of RGB soil colour across Australia. Detailed information about the Soil and Landscape Grid of Australia can be found at - SLGA.

Period (temporal coverage; approximately): 1950-2020; Spatial resolution: 3 arc seconds (approx 90 m); Number of pixels with coverage per layer: 2007M (49200 * 40800); Data license : Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY); Target data standard: GlobalSoilMap specifications; Format: Cloud Optimised GeoTIFF;
