Frequently-anticipated questions:

What does this data set describe?

Title: sri (Soil Resource Inventory)
Abstract:
This layer delineates mapping units derived and defined on the basis of its soil, landform, geology and vegetation characteristics. Soils Management Branch of the Division of Watershed Management. The average delineation size for each mapping unit is 50 to 600 acres. This data was originally mapped at the 1:24000 scale. Due to the reconnaissance nature of this survey, it lacks detail for use in high-intensity, small-area projects. These projects require additional on-site study by various technical specialists, including soil scientists.
Supplemental_Information:
The dominant landtype of the mapping unit is described in the mapping unit description and identified by the same number as used for the mapping unit. Within the mapping unit, other landtypes occur. Those most commonly associated with the dominant landtype of the mapping unit are included in the descriptions as inclusions. These inclusions of other landtypes account for no more than 30 percent of the mapping unit. (for further descriptions of mapping unit symbology see SOIL RESOURCE INVENTORY" Siuslaw National Forest, Basic Soil Information and Interpretive Tables
Many symbols shown on the maps have three digits and are called "Mapping Unit Complexes." These are mapping units used in areas where two or more defined mapping units are present in an arrangement too complex to separate at the one-inch per mile scale. The Legend of Complexes indicates the mapping unit components of the complex and the approximate percentage of each component.

  6. How does the data set represent geographic features?

    1. How are geographic features stored in the data set?

      This is a Vector data set. It contains the following vector data types (SDTS terminology):

      • Complete chain (7614)
      • Label point (2653)
      • GT-polygon composed of chains (2653)
      • Point (97)

    2. What coordinate system is used to represent geographic features?

      The map projection used is Albers Conical Equal Area.

      Projection parameters:
      Standard_Parallel: 43.000000
      Standard_Parallel: 48.000000
      Longitude_of_Central_Meridian: -120.000000
      Latitude_of_Projection_Origin: 34.000000
      False_Easting: 600000.000000
      False_Northing: 0.000000

      Planar coordinates are encoded using coordinate pair
      Abscissae (x-coordinates) are specified to the nearest 0.000000
      Ordinates (y-coordinates) are specified to the nearest 0.000000
      Planar coordinates are specified in meters

      The horizontal datum used is North American Datum of 1983.
      The ellipsoid used is Geodetic Reference System 80.
      The semi-major axis of the ellipsoid used is 6378137.000000.
      The flattening of the ellipsoid used is 1/298.257222.
