Numerical classification
Why?
Why?
Soil types are often a subjective interpretation of what a soil is. Numerical classes eliminate bias that otherwise hinders mapping and interpretation
Where?
Where?
Currently, only in South Africa but we will be testing it in other nations
For whom?
For whom?
This is geared towards environmentalists such as hydrologist and for pedologists. Numerical classes are more difficult to intepret but give more detailed information on what the soil is.
