Price History of SoilWeb

Description of SoilWeb

The SoilWeb for iOS application accesses soil survey information (the SSURGO dataset, published by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service) at your current location. This app was designed to be a lightweight version of the SoilWeb GMap web application. SoilWeb GMap features an interactive map for viewing and querying individual map units, while this app does not. However, SoilWeb for iOS conveniently provides a link to the SoilWeb GMap web app. SoilWeb GMap is available at https://casoilresource.lawr.ucdavis.edu/gmap/ More information about SSURGO is available at https://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/soils/survey/geo/?cid=nrcs142p2_053627 Features of SoilWeb for iOS include: - Soil profile sketches, estimated proportions, and geomorphic position of soil components associated with the SSURGO "map unit" identified at your current location. - Map unit aggregate data such as estimated water holding capacity. - Soil survey area scale and publication date. - Component details: soil taxonomy, soil property depth profiles, land classification ratings, hydraulic and erosion ratings, forest productivity, soil suitability ratings. - Links to Official Series Descriptions (OSDs) generated automatically. - Component links to related web apps: Series Extent Explorer (SEE) and Soil Data Explorer (SDE). - Link to the SoilWeb GMap web application at your current location. - Location accuracy setting allows you to select between standard accuracy (less accurate, uses less battery power) and high accuracy (more accurate, but may use more battery power). - Location auto-refresh feature allows you to continually look up soil data at a specified time interval.

Reviews of SoilWeb

  • Nice work

    Incredible app! Go soil science. Future update should allow the “view map” feature as in the desktop version. This is essential to see nearby soil types rather than just those under your current location.
  • Change Soil Series Font Color

    Have loved this app for years; so grateful to have it. Would like to see the soil series name in a font color other than white; very difficult to read outdoors.
  • Gave soil for wrong area

    The map has the correct gps coordinates, however the software gave us a physical location and soil data for an area 4 miles east of the gps location. Needs work.

    Developer Response

    Hello, sorry the app didn't work as you expected. From your description, it sounds like you linked to the SoilWeb GMap web app from the iOS app. When you do this, the map will open with a marker at your precise GPS coordinates, then you need to tap the map to load soil data for the map unit at that location. When you tap the geolocation button in the GMap web app, your location is determined by your browser using the best means possible. Depending on your browser settings, this could result in a location that is much less precise than what your GPS will normally provide. Perhaps this is what happened to you. If you would like more explanation or help, please feel free to contact us at casoilresource@gmail.com
