Description The Soil Facility produced a range of digital soil attribute products. Each product contains six digital soil attribute maps, and their upper and lower confidence limits, representing the soil attribute at six depths: 0-5cm, 5-15cm, 15-30cm, 30-60cm, 60-100cm and 100-200cm. These depths are consistent with the specifications of the GlobalSoilMap.net project (http://www.globalsoilmap.net/). The digital soil attribute maps are in raster format at a resolution of 3 arc sec (~90 x 90 m pixels).

Attributes included:
Available Water Capacity;
Bulk Density - Whole Earth;
Clay;
Effective Cation Exchange Capacity;
pH - CaCl2;
Silt;
Sand;
Total Nitrogen;
Total Phosphorus.

Period (temporal coverage; approximately): 1950-2013;
Spatial resolution: 3 arc seconds (approx 90m);
Total number of gridded maps for this attribute: 18;
Number of pixels with coverage per layer: 2007M (49200 * 40800);
Total size before compression: about 8GB;
Total size after compression: about 4GB;
