Soil Landscapes of the Federal Republic of Germany 1:250,000
Description
Small-scale soil maps are usually derived from large- or medium-scale soil maps by spatial generalization and content aggregation. A uniform pedoregional classification is required to ensure a comparable approach even across regions. The presented data set at the aggregation level of soil landscapes comprises the 36 most important lithogenetic units in Germany relevant to soil science and is essentially based on the Soil Map 1:200,000 (BUEK200) published jointly by the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR) in cooperation with the National Geological Surveys (SGD) of the federal states and its soil landscape classification. Additionally included are the soils of larger settlement, industrial and commercial areas (as BGL 13.1) and the soils of post-mining landscapes (as BGL 13.2). More detailed information on the soil regions and soil landscapes of the Federal Republic of Germany can be found in the Soil Mapping Guide (KA5), chapter 6.5 starting on page 335. The digital map graphics are based on the topographic principles of the Digital Landscape Model 1:250,000 (DLM250) from 2014 of the Federal Agency for Cartography and Geodesy (BKG).
