OpenLandMap Soil Bulk Density

AI-generated Key Takeaways

• This dataset provides soil bulk density (fine earth) estimates at six standard depths (0, 10, 30, 60, 100, and 200 cm).

• The data is available at a 250-meter resolution and covers the period from 1950 to 2018, excluding Antarctica.

• Bulk density is expressed in kg/m³ and can be visualized and accessed through Google Earth Engine and OpenGeohub.

• The dataset is provided by EnvirometriX Ltd and is licensed under CC-BY-SA-4.0.

• Users can find technical support and report issues through dedicated channels on GitLab and Disqus.
