Soil Survey Geographic (SSURGO) database for Guadalupe County, New Mexico

This data set is a digital soil survey and generally is the most detailed level of soil geographic data developed by the National Cooperative Soil Survey. The information was prepared by digitizing maps, by compiling information onto a planimetric correct base and digitizing, or by revising digitized maps using remotely sensed and other information.

This data set consists of georeferenced digital map data and computerized attribute data. The map data are in a soil survey area extent format and include a detailed, field verified inventory of soils and miscellaneous areas that normally occur in a repeatable pattern on the landscape and that can be cartographically shown at the scale mapped. A special soil features layer (point and line features) is optional. This layer displays the location of features too small to delineate at the mapping scale, but they are large enough and contrasting enough to significantly influence use and management. The soil map units are linked to attributes in the National Soil Information System relational database, which gives the proportionate extent of the component soils and their properties.

access_constraints ["Access Constraints: None. Use Constraints: \nThe U.S. Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation\nService, should be acknowledged as the data source in products\nderived from these data.\n\nThis data set is not designed for use as a primary regulatory tool\nin permitting or citing decisions, but may be used as a reference\nsource. This is public information and may be interpreted by\norganizations, agencies, units of government, or others based on\nneeds; however, they are responsible for the appropriate\napplication. Federal, State, or local regulatory bodies are not to\nreassign to the Natural Resources Conservation Service any\nauthority for the decisions that they make. The Natural Resources\nConservation Service will not perform any evaluations of these maps\nfor purposes related solely to State or local regulatory programs.\n\nPhotographic or digital enlargement of these maps to scales greater\nthan at which they were originally mapped can cause misinterpretation\nof the data. If enlarged, maps do not show the small areas of\ncontrasting soils that could have been shown at a larger scale. The\ndepicted soil boundaries, interpretations, and analysis derived from\nthem do not eliminate the need for onsite sampling, testing, and\ndetailed study of specific sites for intensive uses. Thus, these data\nand their interpretations are intended for planning purposes only.\nDigital data files are periodically updated. Files are dated, and\nusers are responsible for obtaining the latest version of the data.\n"]
