| Welcome to the Soil Data Viewer Site |
 |
Soil Data Viewer is a tool built as an extension to ArcMap that allows a user to create soil-based thematic maps.
The application can also be run independent of ArcMap, but output is then limited to a tabular report.
The soil survey attribute database associated with the spatial soil map is a complicated database with more than 50 tables.
Soil Data Viewer provides users access to soil interpretations and soil properties while shielding them from the complexity
of the soil database. Each soil map unit, typically a set of polygons, may contain multiple soil components that have
different use and management. Soil Data Viewer makes it easy to compute a single value for a map unit and display results,
relieving the user from the burden of querying the database, processing the data and linking to the spatial map.
Soil Data Viewer contains processing rules to enforce appropriate use of the data. This provides the user with a tool for
quick geospatial analysis of soil data for use in resource assessment and management.
