OpenLandMap Soil Organic Carbon Content

Page Summary

• This dataset provides soil organic carbon content at 6 standard depths (0, 10, 30, 60, 100 and 200 cm) at 250 m resolution.

• The data is available from 1950 to 2018 and was provided by EnvirometriX Ltd.

• The soil organic carbon content is measured in g/kg, with a scale of 5, and estimated minimum and maximum values of 0 and 120 respectively.

• The dataset is predicted from a global compilation of soil points and does not include Antarctica.

• The terms of use for this dataset are CC-BY-SA-4.0.
