Land use-stratified soil map of Germany at scale 1:1,000,000

Description

The Land use-stratified soil map of Germany at scale 1:1,000,000 (BUEK1000N), version 2.32, presents the distribution of soils and their associations nationwide in a uniform form at the aggregation level of the lead soil associations, which were intersected with 14 generalized and adjusted land use classes from CORINE Land Cover 1990. It did not appear as an analog map like the three subextracts of cropland, grassland, and forest. The digital map graphic is supplemented by climate regions, soil regions, and soil landscapes. The legend comprises 69 soil legend units with leading and accompanying soils (and information on the soil depth, the soil types, water conditions and the parent material), arranged according to soil distribution areas, partial legends arable land, grassland and forest, each subdivided according to climatic regions. The area-related content data are composed of 76 forest reference profiles, 78 cropland reference profiles, and 56 grassland reference profiles and are stored in a relational database. An additional 54-page booklet with explanations of the BUEK1000N can be purchased at GeoCenter Touristik Medienservice GmbH in 70565 Stuttgart, Germany, if required. The digital map graphics of version 2.32 are based on the topographic map of the Digital Landscape Model 1:1,000,000 (DLM1000) of the Federal Agency for Cartography and Geodesy from 2019.
