Soil and Terrain Database for Nepal (version 1.0) - scale 1:1 million (SOTER_Nepal)
Entry ID:
ISRIC_SOTER_Nepal_primary
Summary
Abstract:
The Soil and Terrain database for Nepal primary data (version 1.0), at scale 1:1 million (SOTER_Nepal). SOTER_Nepal is generalized from the original Soils and Terrain database of Nepal at scale 1:50,000 compiled by FAO and Nepal's Survey Dept. The SOTER_Nepal database provides generalized information on landform and soil properties at a scale 1:1 million. It consists of 17 SOTER units, ...

This data set is used primarily to display the location of NAWQA Trace Element
Study Sites and for use with the NAWQA Study Unit boundaries coverage (NAWQA) for analysis of data at the national scale. It is not recommended for either local or regional analysis due to the small scale of most of the features. The dataset was created from Latitude/Longitude coordinates using ArcView GIS. A shapefile was created from lat/long coordinates and was then converted into a coverage using ArcInfo. The coverage was re-projected into Albers for use with other CAMD GIS coverages.
