Soil and Landscape Grid National Soil Attribute Maps - Australian Soil Classification Map (3" resolution) - Release 1

Created 20/10/2024

Updated 20/10/2024

We used Digital Soil Mapping (DSM) technologies combined with the real-time collations of soil attribute data from TERN's recently developed Soil Data Federation System, to produce a map of Australian Soil Classification Soil Order classes with quantified estimates of mapping reliability at a 90m resolution.

The map gives an estimate of the spatial distribution of soil types across Australia.

Soil classes are based on The Australian Soil Classification - Second Edition by the National Committee on Soil and Terrain, R Isbell - https://ebooks.publish.csiro.au/content/australian-soil-classification-9781486304646
