Artificial means of distinguishing smooth-line map unit boundaries : an examination of Oregon soil survey maps

Creator:

Sun, Yulin

Abstract:

Soil is a complex living system with high heterogeneity, which makes locating soil map boundaries a challenge. In traditional soil survey, the placement of soil map boundaries relies largely (at least initially) on identifying the soil-forming factors of biota and topographic relief through stereo aerial photo pairs. Future soil survey...

of Distinguishing Smooth-line Map Unit Boundaries: An Examination of Oregon Soil Survey Maps
Use of decision tree analysis for predictive soils mapping and implementation on the Malheur County, Oregon initial soil survey

Creator:

Hash, Sarah Jane

Abstract:

Soil surveys provide essential information for making land use and management decisions on publicly-owned lands in the semi-arid Great Basin. Soil maps produced with conventional mapping techniques are time-consuming, costly, and do not explicitly document the soil scientist's mental soil-landscape model. Predictive soils mapping using decision tree analysis (DTA) can...
