This layer shows the coverage of S-map polygons, labelled with their Soil mapunit – a unique identifier of one or more polygons with the same soil information.
The S-map primary map layer of soil classes (i.e. delineated areas that are labelled with the soil family names) is no longer freely available to commercial users. Access to this data and associated soil attribute data for commercial use is by negotiation - contact Graeme Anderson (andersong@landcareresearch.co.nz).
