Soil mapping and attribution dataset of all nodes area in pan-third pole is an important information to provide extremely valuable reference for the weather process, drought and hydrological monitoring, which reflects the soil resources, soil fertility, soil environment, soil biology and other soil databases. The base of this data is from the world soil database (HWSD), which belongs to the FAO soil portal V1.2) authoritative public data are the main data, and some supplementary data such as ISRIC soil data published by ISRIC and other project data collected by the world soil data center (ISRIC). Finally the data of soil information in the expected 31 pan third pole key node regionsand 3 projects is obtained. As the research basis of soil, this data set provides the basic information of soil regionalization for the project. This data has the characteristics of grid visualization and attribute table visualization, which can be viewed through many ways. The grid visualization data provides general data on soil types and distribution. And the attribute information is included in the excel, including detailed soil parameters (including organic carbon, pH, water storage, soil depth, cation exchange capacity and clay content of soil, total exchangeable nutrients, lime and gypsum content, sodium exchange rate, salinity, structural grade and particle size, etc.).
File name:
The visualization data is saved in TIF format, and the file name is "name"_ Of_ Keynode.tif ”, where "name"_ Of_ "Key node" indicates the name of the key node
The attribute data is saved in the form of table, and the file is named as“ SoilMapUnit.xlsx ”Where "soilmapunit" is the soil unit number
Data reading mode:
In (1) .shp format, can be opened and analysed in ARCGIS and ENVI softwares to view soil mapping visualzation grid data.
(2) .excel format, can be opened and analysed in Microsoft EXCEL software to view soil attribution data.
