U.S. general soil map (STATSGO2) "Soil maps for the State Soil Geographic (STATSGO) database are produced by generalizing the detailed soil survey data. The mapping scale for STATSGO is 1:250,000 (with the exception of Alaska, which is 1:1,000,000). The level of mapping is designed to be used for broad planning and management uses covering state, regional, and multi-state areas." |
