A lightweight web tool for exploring global soil profiles. It is built on top of an outstanding open dataset so that researchers can access DSSAT-compatible soil data without downloading gigabytes of files.
.SOL file (DSSAT-ready) or JSONThe underlying data comes from a landmark 2015 study which addressed a longstanding gap in gridded soil inputs for crop simulation models like DSSAT. By combining SoilGrids 1km and ISRIC-AfSIS, the authors produced soil profiles on a 5 arc-minute grid with key hydraulic properties estimated via pedotransfer functions.
