Updated and harmonized information about soil is essential for the sustainable use of land and the conservation of natural resources. However, in Portugal, soil maps are heterogeneous respecting scale, classification system and mapping and analytical methodology. It is crucial to standardize them at a 1:100000 scale and in the WRB system, using digital tools and existing legacy soil information. In three pilot ...
