NSW Foundation Spatial Data Framework - Land Cover - Soil Landscape

Soil Landscapes comprise of the Soil Landscape Series mapping based on standard 1:100,000 and 1:250,000 topographic sheets and Soil and Land Resource Series mapping using catchment boundaries or other areas of state significance. Mapping and accompanying reports provide an inventory of soil and landscape properties of their area and identify major soil and landscape qualities and constraints.\r\n\r\nThe ‘Soil Landscape’ concept integrates soil and topographic features into single units with relatively uniform land management requirements. Soils are described in terms of Australian Soil Classification, Great Soil Group and Northcote classification systems. Key soil materials are also identified for\r\nthe Soil Landscape Series.
