Digital Soil Mapping

Zoning Analysis:
• Soil maps delivered interactively in chosen GIS platform, in addition to PDF. Field zoning by integration of available yield and soil maps.
• Chemical and physical properties.
• Depth to constraint maps, 3D understanding of constraints to root growth.
• Quantification of spatial uncertainty to ensure soil maps are fit for purpose.
• Statistically based spatial modelling to identify soilbased yield drivers.
• Analysis of importance of individual measured and mapped soil properties on yield variation in each season. Yield drivers change depending on the most seasonally apparent constraint.
• Zone maps, variable rate files and trial design supplied to
PCT Agcloud or other platform of choice.

Soil analysis:
• Chemical & physical analysis on 4 soil segments between 0 and 100cm to facilitate 3D soil maps.
• Additional analytes and combinations are available for specific needs.
• Test methods are based on procedures as described in Soil Chemical Methods – Australasia (2011) Rayment and Lyons.

Soil coring:
• Intact 0-100 cm, 50mm cores.
• Allowing for calculation of bulk density and visual analysis of soil through the profile for the identification of textual and colour changes, compaction layers and rooting depth.

*OptiSoil has a flexible approach to sample design and characteristics to be measured. Including grid sampling. All jobs will have a detailed quote attached.
