What do we need to know about soils?

Soil maps are precious information on soils. All data available on soils is gathered in a common entry point: Geonetwork-based web viewer, where users can search for available soil data/information and Web-GIS, which enables seeing spatial information (by location) of these sets.
- Check out the Links4Soils Alpine soil geonetwork node and the WebGIS viewer!
- A Soil glossary was developed in order to find a common language. It can be found on the Alpine Soils Platform (click here).
