AusSoilsDSM
This site is a repository of Digital Soil Mapping data and methods for the Australian DSM community. It is designed to be a collaborative technical resource for people wanting to do DSM in Australia. The site contains links to relevant national data sets, both raster covariate data and soil site data, as well as code for undertaking soil modelling. The focus of this site is the technical implementation of DSM.
A current focus is around making code and data available that is being used in the second version of the Soil & Landscape Grid of Australia.
Please feel free to use and contribute to this resource as you wish. If you wish to contribute please refer to the contacts page.
