Soil and Landscape Grid of Australia

Australian Government | Source |

The Soil and Landscape Grid of Australia is a collaborative effort by researchers from across the country to create detailed digital maps of soil and landscape attributes. Offering relevant, consistent, and comprehensive nationwide data in an easily-accessible format, the Grid presents high-resolution (3 arc-seconds) digital soil and landscape attribute maps with estimates of reliability. It leverages the best available data from existing databases, new sensor measurements, and spatial modeling to provide a first approximation of national scale maps. These datasets are designed to be continuously updated and improved over time as new resources, data, and advanced technologies become available.
