Historical Soil Digital Database — Soil Deeps (INSPIRE Viewing Service)

The soils of agricultural land in Latvia have been mapped between 1960 and 1991 in several layers, using different soil classifications on a scale of 1:10 000 at different times, resulting in differences between districts. As a result of the European Economic Area project “Development of the National System for Greenhouse Gas Inventory and Reporting on Policies, Measures and Forecasts” (No 4.3-233/EEZ/INP-002), the research project “Sustainable promotion of land resource management through the creation of a digital soil database” carried out the extraction of existing geodetic coordinates (LKS 92) and the creation of a database for the 746 depths of soil in the materials of the Central Archives of the State Land Service between September 2014 and March 2016.
