Busia Soil Class Map
10.4231/6D95-RH34
11/18/2019
The soil landscape rule-based model was used to disaggregate the soil map units by exploiting information in the Busia soil map legend and the map unit descriptions. These descriptions were used to generate rules that were applied to a fuzzy soil class map...

Busia Crop Suitability Maps
10.4231/VA77-JB85
11/18/2019
To determine specific crop suitability ratings for Busia area, decision matrices developed by Rachilo and Michieka (1991) were used to generate crop suitability classes for each soil map unit. Land suitability is the fitness of a given tract of land for a...

Environmental Covariate Data for Spatial Prediction of Soil Properties for the Busia Area, Kenya
10.4231/7F9R-4W74
11/18/2019
A raster stack of 23 environmental covariates primarily based on remote sensing for predicting soil properties. These covariates were selected to represent the factors of soil formation and included the following. (1) The 1 Arc-Second (30 m) NASA shuttle R...

11/18/2019
How can soil classes within a soil map unit be disaggregated? To answer this question, a soil landscape-rule based approach was used to disaggregate the soil map units by exploiting information in the map legend and the map unit descriptions. The descripti...

11/18/2019
Soil landscape inference model (SoLIM) maps soil type, not soil mapping units, under the assumption that soil properties are fairly homogeneous over a small spatial extent. Thus, typically it takes a raster-based approach which means that it divides the ar...

11/18/2019
Six terrain attributes were subjected to K-means clustering performed in SAGA-GIS using the hill-climbing method (Rubin, 1967) using a terrain attribute combination of multiresolution valley bottom flatness, multiresolution ridgetop flatness, planform curv...

Although in many systems of land evaluation, single or land characteristics such as drainage condition or texture are used as a basis for diagnosis and for establishing suitability class-determining specifications, it is most useful and ideal to consider t...

To ensure that multivariate covariates are independent of each other, Gobin (2000) used principal components instead of the original environmental covariates as predictors to improve on the prediction for soil-landscape modelling. Therefore, all the origin...

Soil Property Data for Spatial Prediction of Soil Properties for the Busia Area, Kenya
10.4231/00R1-HM25
11/18/2019
The use of legacy soil data for digital soil mapping is determined by the type of data available. When soil profile data is available, it can be used as inputs to predict soil properties at unsampled locations (McBratney et al., 2003). This dataset contain...
