- Abstract:
- The STATSGO database is a digital general soil
association map developed by the National Cooperative Soil Survey.
It consists of a broad based inventory of soils and nonsoil areas
that occur in a repeatable pattern on the landscape and that can be
cartographically shown at the scale mapped. The soil maps for
STATSGO are compiled by generalizing more detailed soil survey maps.
Where more detailed soil survey maps are not available, data on
geology, topography, vegetation, and climate are assembled, together
with Land Remote Sensing Satellite (LANDSAT) images. Soils of like
areas are studied, and the probable classification and extent of the
soils are determined. Map unit composition for a STATSGO map is
determined by transecting or sampling areas on the more detailed
maps and expanding the data statistically to characterize the whole
map unit. The original data set consists of georeferenced digital
map data and computerized attribute data. The map data are collected
in 1- by 2-degree topographic quadrangle units and merged and
distributed as statewide coverages. The soil map units are linked to
attributes in the Map Unit Interpretations Record relational data
base which gives the proportionate extent of the component soils and
their properties.
This data set provides a soil association map in ARCVIEW
Shapefile Format for the Conterminous United States. The shapefile
is prepared and distributed by EPA regions. Selected attribute
related tables which contain soil properties are provided. This data
set is a subset of the original STATSGO data set developed by the
National Cooperative Soil Survey.
- Purpose:
- STATSGO depicts information about soil
features on or near the surface of the Earth. These data are
collected as part of the National Cooperative Soil Survey. STASGO is
designed primarily for regional, multi-county, riverbasin, state,
and multi-state regional planning, management, and monitoring.

Intended_use_of_data: This data set was prepared to support the
U.S. EPA BASINS (Better Assessment Science Integrating Point and
Nonpoint Sources) System, Version 2.0.

- Data_Quality_Information:
-
- Logical_Consistency_Report:
- Certain node/geometry and topology
(GT)-polygon/chain relationships are collected or generated to satisfy
topological requirements. (The GT-polygon corresponds to the soil
delineation). Some of these requirements include; chains must begin
and end at nodes, chains must connect to each other at nodes, chains
do not extend through nodes, left and right GT-polygons are defined
for each chain element and are consistent throughout, and the chains
representing the limits of the file (neatline) are free of gaps. The
tests of logical consistency are performed using vendor software. The
neatline is generated by connecting the explicitly entered four
corners of the digital file. All data outside the enclosed region are
ignored and all data crossing these geographically straight lines are
clipped at the neatline. Data within a specified tolerance of the
neatline are snapped to the neatline. Neatline straightening aligns
the digitized edges of the digital data with the generated neatline
(i.e., with the longitude/latitude lines in geographic coordinates).
All internal polygons are tested for closure with vendor software and
are checked on hard copy plots. All data are checked for common soil
lines (i.e., adjacent polygons with the same label). Quadrangles are
edge matched within the state, merged into a statewide data sets, and
then edge matched to adjacent state data sets. Edge locations do not
deviate from centerline to centerline by more than 0.01 inches.
- Completeness_Report:
- A map unit is a collection of areas defined and
named the same in terms of their soil and/or nonsoil areas. Each map
unit differs in some respect from all others in a survey area and is
uniquely identified. Each individual area is a delineation. Each map
unit consists of one to 21 components. In those few areas where
detailed maps did not exist, reconnaissance soil surveys were combined
with data on geology, topography, vegetation, climate, and remote
sensing images to delineate map units and estimate the percentages of
components. The STATSGO map unit components are soil series phases,
and their percent composition represents the estimated areal
proportion of each within STATSGO map unit. The composition for a map
unit is generalized to represent the statewide extent of that map unit
and not the extent of any single map unit delineation. These
specifications provide a nationally consistent representation of
STATSGO attribute data. The actual composition and interpretive purity
of the map unit delineations were based on statistical analysis of
transect data. The composition was largely determined by measuring
transects on detailed soil survey maps. The number of transects used
was proportional to the relative size, number, and complexity of the
delineations. The combined data on the length of the map units crossed
by the transects were used to determine the percentages of the
different soil and nonsoil areas in each map unit. Specific limits
were established on the classification of soils and the design and
name of map units. These limits are outlined in U.S. Department of
Agriculture. 1975. Soil Taxonomy: A basic system of soil
classification for making and interpreting soil surveys. Soil Conserv.

- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
- The accuracy of these digital data is based
upon their compilation to base maps that meet National Map
Accuracy Standards. The difference in positional accuracy between
the map unit boundaries in the field and their digitized map
locations is unknown. The locational accuracy of soil delineations
on the ground varies with the transition between map units. For
example, in areas where changes in soils, climate, topography, and
geology occur subtly across a portion of a state, the transition
between soil map unit boundaries will be gradual. Where these
features change abruptly, such as from an area of foothills to a
lake plain, the transition will be very narrow. Soil delineation
boundaries were digitized within 0.01 inches of their locations on
the digitizing source. The digital map elements are edge matched
between data sets. The data along each state boundary are matched
against the data for the adjacent state. Edge locations generally
do not deviate from centerline to centerline by more than 0.01
inch.

- Process_Description:
- Soil map unit lines and symbols were drafted
in red pencil on a mylar overlay that was punch registered to fit
the mylar USGS 1:250,000-scale topographic quadrangle. A detailed
and complete edit was performed on all overlays before digitizing.
The soil delineation overlays were raster scanned at a scanning
resolution of at least 0.01 inches and converted to a vector
format or were manually digitized on a digitizing tablet with a
resolution of at least 0.001 inches. Four control points
corresponding to the four corners of the quadrangles were used for
registration during data collection. The control points were
either explicitly entered or developed by the software. The data
sets were edge matched and merged into statewide coverages. A
detailed and complete edit was performed on all digital data.

- Process_Description:
- The original state by state Arc/Info
coverages were converted from their original projections (e.g.
mostly Albers Conic Equal area with datum NAD27) to geographic
decimal degrees projection with datum NAD 83. They were then
converted to Arcview shape files using the Arc/Info ARCSHAPE
command. Two related tables in Arcview DBF format were prepared to
contain selected fields (i.e. soil properties) in the COMP and
LAYER tables of the STATSGO database. For distribution with BASINS
2.0, the data layer was divided by EPA regions (i.e. distribution
by CD). This involved merging the state by state shape files in
Arcview to produce the EPA regional shape files. Other form of
data distribution (e.g. by cataloging unit) is available through
the web (<http://www.epa.gov/OST/BASINS).>

- Overview_Description:
-
- Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:
- Map Unit Delineations are closed polygons that
are generally geographic mixtures of groups of soils or soils and
nonsoil areas. The map unit ID uniquely identifies each closed
delineation, map unit. Each map unit ID is linked to a map unit
name. The map unit ID is also the key for linking information in the
Map Unit Interpretations Record tables.
Map Unit Delineations are described by the Map Unit
Interpretations Record data base. This attribute data base gives the
proportionate extent of the component soils and the properties for
each soil. The data base contains both estimated and measured data
on the physical and chemical soil properties and soil
interpretations for engineering, water management, recreation,
agronomic, woodland, range and wildlife uses of the soil. The Soil
Map Unit Interpretations Record data base consist of the following
relational tables; codes (data base codes) - stores information on
all codes used in the data base comp (map unit component) - stores
information which will apply to a specific component of a soil map
unit compyld (component crop yield) - stores crop yield information
for soil map unit components forest (forest understory) - stores
information for plant cover as forest understory for soil map unit
components interp (interpretation) - stores soil interpretation
ratings (both limitation ratings and suitability ratings) to soil
map unit components layer (soil layer) - stores characteristics
which apply to soil layers for soil map unit components mapunit (map
unit) - stores information which applies to all components of a soil
map unit plantcom (plant composition) - stores plant symbols and
percent of plant composition associated with components of soil map
units plantnm (plant name) - stores the common and scientific names
for plants used in the data base rsprod (range site production) -
stores range site production information for soil map unit
components taxclass (taxonomic classification) - stores the
taxonomic classification for soils in the data base windbrk
(windbreak) - stores information on recommended windbreak plants for
soil map unit components wlhabit (wildlife habitat) - stores
wildlife habitat information for soil map unit components woodland
(woodland) - store information on common indicator trees for soil
map unit components woodmgt (woodland management) - stores woodland
management information for soil map unit components yldunits (yield
units) - stores crop names and the units used to measure yield
For distribution with BASINS v2.0, only comp and layer related
tables are included.
