A collection of high-resolution soil attribute grid surfaces for land areas in Tasmania. There are 17 soil attribute products available that delineate specific soil properties at standardized soil depths (0-5cm, 0-15cm, 5-15cm, 15-30cm, 30-60cm, 60-100cm & 100-200cm) and grid resolutions (30m and 80m grid resolutions). Soil attributes available include Available Water Capacity (AWC, %), Bulk Density (BD, Mg/m3), Soil Texture (Clay; Sand; Silt, %), Coarse Fragments (CF, %), Soil Depth (cm), Soil Drainage, Electrical Conductivity (EC/ECse, dS/m), Field Capacity (FC), Soil Organic Carbon (SOC, %), Soil Permeability, pH, Exchangeable Calcium (ExCa, ppm), Exchangeable Magnesium (ExMg, ppm) and Depth to Sodic layer (Sodic Depth, cm). A document that describes each dataset and associated nomenclature can be accessed here: https://nrmdatalibrary.dpipwe.tas.gov.au/FactSheets/WfW/ListMapUserNotes/Inventory_DSM_Tas.pdf Note that these products were developed using datasets held by the Tasmanian Department of Primary Industries Parks Water & Environment (DPIPWE) Soils Database, hosted on the Tasmanian Natural Values Atlas (https://www.naturalvaluesatlas.tas.gov.au/). The mapping was made by using spatial modelling and digital soil mapping (DSM) techniques with the outputs available via a Web Map Service (WMS): https://spatial.dpipwe.tas.gov.au/naturalassets/Soil/wms Or viewed in the following Web Map application: https://arcg.is/4PaT8

Digital representation of the revised Brighton Reconnaissance Soil Map, originally surveyed by CSIRO in 1957. Original mapping scale was 1 inch to 1 mile (1:63360). The soil map covers the northern half of the Derwent 1:100 000 topographic mapsheet area. The revised map was digitally reproduced by DPIWE at a more reliable scale of 1:100 000. The soil map represents one in a series of Reconnaissance soil survey maps compiled by CSIRO for Tasmania. The data is comprised of lines and polygons. Soil data attributes include soil mapping unit, unit code, unit description, and the Australian Soil Classification, Great Soil Group classification and soil profile class for the dominant soil. Additional soil information is displayed as annotation on both the Arcview version of the digital map and on the paper map. Attribute data for the soil profile description sample site locations displayed on the digital and non-digital map are stored in the DPIWE Oracle database. These sites were collected by CSIRO and DPIWE for a range of projects. They are listed as a separate metadata entry. A written report describing the soil map data is available as 'Revised Brighton Reconnaissance Soil Map of Tasmania. Department of Primary Industries, Water and Environment'.

Digital representation of the revised Buckland Reconnaissance Soil Map, originally surveyed by CSIRO in 1958. Original mapping scale was 1 inch to 1 mile (1:63360). The soil map covers the northern half of the Prosser 1:100 000 topographic mapsheet area. The revised map was digitally reproduced by DPIWE at a more reliable scale of 1:100 000. The data represents one in a series of Reconnaissance soil survey maps compiled by CSIRO for Tasmania. The data is comprised of lines and polygons. Soil data attributes include soil mapping unit, unit code, unit description, and the Australian Soil Classification, Great Soil Group classification and soil profile class for the dominant soil. Additional soil information is displayed as annotation on both the Arcview version of the digital map and on the paper map. Attribute data for the soil profile description sample site locations displayed on the digital and non-digital map are stored in the DPIWE Oracle database.

These are the soil attribute products of the Tasmanian Soil Attribute Grids. There are 8 soil attribute products available from the TERN Soil Facility. Each soil attribute product is a collection of 6 depth slices. Each depth raster has an upper and lower uncertainty limit raster associated with it. The depths provided are 0-5cm, 5-15cm, 15-30cm, 30-60cm, 60-100cm & 100-200cm, consistent with the Specifications of the GlobalSoilMap. Attributes: pH - Water (pHw); Electical Conductivity dS/m (ECD); Clay % (CLY); Sand % (SND); Silt % (SLT); Bulk Density - Whole Earth Mg/m3 (BDw); Organic Carbon % (SOC); Coarse Fragments >2mm (CFG). These products were developed using datasets held by the Tasmanian Department of Primary Industries Parks Water & Environment (DPIPWE) Soils Database. The mapping was made by using spatial modelling and digital soil mapping (DSM) techniques to produce a fine resolution 3 arc-second grid of soil attribute values and their uncertainties, across all of Tasmania. Note: Previous versions of this collection contained a Depth layer. This has been removed as the units do not comply with Global Soil Map specifications.

We measured the spectra of 4606 surface soil samples from across Australia using a vis-NIR spectrometer. These spectra provide an integrative measure that provides information on the fundamental characteristics and composition of the soil, including colour, iron oxide, clay and carbonate mineralogy, organic matter content and composition, the amount of water present and particle size. This soil information content of the spectra was summarised using a principal component analysis (PCA). We used model trees to derive statistical relationships between the scores of the PCA and 31 predictors that were readily available and we thought might best represent the factors of soil formation (climate, organisms, relief, parent material, time and the soil itself). The models were validated and subsequently used to produce digital maps of the information content of the spectra, as summarised by the PCA, with estimates of prediction error at 3-arc seconds (around 90 m) pixel resolution. The maps might be useful in situations requiring high-resolution, quantitative soil information e.g. in agricultural, environmental and ecologic modelling and for soil mapping and classification.

Digital representation of the Burnie-Table Cape Reconnaissance Soil Map, originally surveyed by CSIRO in 1961. Original mapping scale was 1 inch to 1 mile (1:63 000), which was then reproduced at a smaller scale of 1:100 000 by CSIRO Division of Soils. The revised maps were digitally reproduced by DPIWE at the smaller scale. The soil map covers a region along the coast from Rocky Cape through Burnie to Heybridge and inland as far as Tewkesbury. The data is comprised of lines and polygons. Soil data attributes include soil mapping unit, unit code, unit description, and the Australian Soil Classification, Great Soil Group classification and soil profile class for the dominant soil. Additional soil information is displayed as annotation on both the Arcview version of the digital map and on the paper map. Attribute data for the soil profile description sample site locations displayed on the digital and non-digital maps are stored in the DPIWE Oracle database. These sites were collected by CSIRO and DPIWE for a range of projects. They are listed as a separate metadata entry. A written report describing the soil map data is available as 'Revised Burnie-Table Cape Reconnaissance Soil Map' of Tasmania. Department of Primary Industries, Water and Environment'.
