Service Description: STATSGO depicts information about soil features on or near the surface of the Earth. These data are collected as part of the National Cooperative Soil Survey.
For use with the GeoStac database, this data set was compiled in order to simplify presticide risk assessment and to provide a common data set upon which to perform analysis for all stakeholders.
This data was collected by Stone Environmental, Inc. for the New York State Department of State with funds provided under Title 11 of the Environmental Protection Fund.

Description: This data set is a digital general soil association map developed by the National Cooperative Soil Survey. It consists of a broad based inventory of soils and nonsoil areas that occur in a repeatable pattern on the landscape and that can be cartographically shown at the scale mapped. The soil maps for STATSGO are compiled by generalizing more detailed soil survey maps. Where more detailed soil survey maps are not available, data on geology, topography, vegetation, and climate are assembled, together with Land Remote Sensing Satellite (LANDSAT) images. Soils of like areas are studied, and the probable classification and extent of the soils are determined. Map unit composition for a STATSGO map is determined by transecting or sampling areas on the more detailed maps and expanding the data statistically to characterize the whole mapunit. This data set consists of georeferenced digital map data and computerized attribute data. The map data are collected in 1- by 2-degree topographic quadrangle units and merged and distributed as statewide coverages. The soil map units are linked to attributes in the Map Unit Interpretations Record relational data base which gives the proportionate extent of the component soils and their properties. For use with the GeoStac Database, STATSGO spatial and tabular data files were imported from the source file format to geodatabase feature class format, and converted to a common GeoStac map projection. No changes were made to the geometric or tabular data.Mohawk River Watershed Processing: The original dataset was clipped for use in the Mohawk River Watershed Management Plan. The data was re-projected from Albers to UTM 18N, NAD 83. Attributes of interest were extracted and summarized.
