The files are in some choices of raster formats. I used the GeoTIFF format.
Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia
The following GeoTIFF files represent the merged categories as currently being discussed. The merged or grouped categories (with original category number) are: 1:Water (11), 2:Urban (21,22,23), 3: Urban/Recreational Grasses (85), 4:Barren (31), 5:Minelands (32,33), 6:Forest (41,42,43), 7:Shrub/Orchard/Grass (51,61,71), 8:Pastureland/Hay (81), 9:Cropland (82,83,84) and 10:Wetland (91,92).
The following GeoTIFF files are in Albers Conic Equal Area/NAD83 projection.
Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia
The following is a shape file in Albers Conic Equal Area/NAD83 projection which includes all of the statsgo polygons for all seven states with variables in the data base for the portion of area (0-1), hectares and socp within each statsgo polygon for the 10 grouped NLCD categories - None, Water, Urban, Recreational Urban (RECREA), Barren, Mine, Forest, Shrub, Pasture (PAST), Cropland (CROP) and Wetlands (WETL). Also include are the breakdowns of urban, pasture and cropland into prime not eroded, prime eroded, prime severely eroded and marginal using the procedure defined in the latest May 21, 2004 version of the procedures document.
The suffix descriptions of the variables in this file are:
-PR represents portion of area between 0 and 1.
-HA represents the hectares for that category
-PN4 represents prime not eroded
-PE4 represents prime eroded
-PS4 represents prime severely eroded
-M4 represents marginal
-SOCP or SOC or SO represents the soil organic carbon pool for that categoryNote that the update for the new mineland areas are not included in this shape file data base.
mrcsp_statsgo_nlcd3_a83b.dbf.zip file This file contains the min and max SOCP value for several of the Land Uses. It was created for Chris Bouquot (8/6/2004).
Derived/Results Shape Files
Derived from STATSGO data as portion of the map unit that is defined as being eroded or severely eroded. I have been displaying the eroded or severely_e fields with 5 ranges such as: 1-10; 10-30; 30-50; 50-70; 70-100 (represent percents). Note that the following shape files contain the polygons for both the eroded and severely eroded areas. There are two fields in the dbf files that give the eroded area percentages for eroded (eroded) and severely eroded (severely_e) respectively.
