Soil Data Viewer 5.x

Soil Data Viewer is a tool built as an extension to ArcMap that allows a user to create soil-based thematic maps.  The soil survey attribute database associated with the spatial soil map is a complicated database with more than 50 tables. Soil Data Viewer provides users access to soil interpretations and soil properties while shielding them from the complexity of the soil database.  Soil Data Viewer  provides the user with a tool for quick geospatial analysis of soil data for use in resource assessment and management.

Soil Data Viewer can be run on CCE and non-CCE platforms. More information on Soil Data Viewer software, system requirements, obtaining and preparing data, and software download can be obtained from the Soil Data Viewer website.
