USDA/NRCS SSURGO Data https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/21.072 Summary This dataset is a remote link to the USDA/NRCS SSURGO web site. Field mapping methods using national standards are used to construct the soil maps in the Soil Survey Geographic (SSURGO) data base. Mapping scales generally range from 1:12,000 to 1:63,360; SSURGO is the most detailed level of soil mapping done by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). SSURGO digitizing duplicates the original soil survey maps. This level of mapping is designed for use by landowners, townships, and county natural resource planning and management. The user should be knowledgeable of soils data and their characteristics. Identifiers * Local archive identifier: 21.072 Citation UCAR/NCAR - Earth Observing Laboratory. 2001. USDA/NRCS SSURGO Data.
