Soil Geographical Data Base of Eurasia and Mediterranean Countries at 1 : 1,000,000
Açýklama:
This programme was developed in the framework of the European Soil Information System (EUSIS) managed by the European Soil Bureau of the European Union.
The Geographical Data Base, coming originally from the Soil Map of the European Communities published in 1985, was progressively improved and extended spatially, with the help of contributing countries.
The data sets are managed within a Geographical Information System, including a related soil analytical database.
Its last extension concerns Southern and Eastern Mediterranean countries. We present here its present state of progress. To help countries in giving data to that programme, the general organisation of the database is explained in an "Instructions Guide for the elaboration of the Soil Geographical Database of Eurasia and Mediterranean countries at 1:1 M", recently published by the European Soil Bureau.
