"The SSURGO soils data are the most accurate and comprehensive federal soils products available. The levels of soils data include:-SSURGO is the most detailed county-level data. -STATSGO is less detailed statewide map.-NATSGO is a very general soil map of the entire U.S. The SSURGO level of soil mapping is designed for use by landowners, townships, and counties for natural resource planning and management and regional applications. It is appropriate for watershed planning and some agricultural uses. The user should be knowledgeable about soils data and their characteristics. This database is scheduled to be completed for the entire country in 2008. Approximately 85 percent of all counties in Virginia have digital SSURGO soils data available. The Soils section located in the supplemental METADATA file includes an illustration that shows SSURGO soil data (left) and SSURGO soils data made “transparent” and superimposed over aerial photography (right). The SSURGO soil polygons associated with the Virginia County Data Series have been permanently joined with selected attributes. Not all attributes have been joined to the spatial data. These polygon files are disseminated as Shapefiles, and may be large in size (1 to 2 MB).
