This map is one of a series of soil landscape maps that are intended for all of central and eastern NSW, based on standard 1:100,000 and 1:250,000 topographic sheets. The map provides an inventory of soil and landscape properties of the area and identifies major soil and landscape qualities and constraints. It integrates soil and topographic features into single units with relatively uniform land management requirements. Soils are described in terms of soil materials in addition to the Australian Great Soil Group and Northcote classification systems. Related Datasets: The dataset area is also covered by the mapping of the Soil and Land Resources of the Hawkesbury-Nepean Catchment, Acid Sulphate Soil Risk Mapping and Hydrogeological landscapes of NSW. Online Maps: This and related datasets can be viewed using eSPADE (NSW’s soil spatial viewer), which contains a suite of soil and landscape information including soil profile data. Many of these datasets have hot-linked soil reports. An alternative viewer is the SEED Map; an ideal way to see what other natural resources datasets (e.g. vegetation) are available for this map area.

The soil landscape sheet provides a soil and landscape inventory of the area covering Mullumbimby, Byron Bay, Casino and Kyogle and identifies major soil and landscape limitations for both urban and rural development. This is a series of soil landscape maps based on the Land and Property Information 1:100,000 topographic map series and is designed to provide soil and landscape resource information which can be easily understood. The use of the soil landscape concept permits the integration of both soil and topographic constraints into one unit so that the map can be viewed in terms of limitations for urban and rural development.

Abstract The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from multiple source datasets. The source datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement. This dataset is the average clay content of the top 2m of soil over the Sydney Basin. It is derived from the TERN digital soil mapping (http://www.tern.org.au/Soil-and-Landscape-Grid-of-Australia-pg17731.html). ## Purpose This dataset was created to estimate groundwater recharge in the alluvial areas of the Sydney Basin using the empirical method of Wohling et al (2012). Wohling DL, Leaney FW and Crosbie RS (2012) Deep drainage estimates using multiple linear regression with percent clay content and rainfall. Hydrol. Earth Syst. Sci. 16(2), 563-572. DOI: 10.5194/hess-16-563-2012. ## Dataset History This is a depth-weighted average of the clay content from 6 soil layers in the TERN digital soil mapping (http://data.bioregionalassessments.gov.au/dataset/f8640540-4bb7-42ee-995a-219881e67705). It has then been re-projected to MGA94 Zone 56 and re-sampled to a 500m raster. ## Dataset Citation Bioregional Assessment Programme (XXXX) SYD Soil - Average Clay Content Top 2m v01.

This map provides soil types across NSW using the Great Soil Group Classification. It uses the best available soils natural resource mapping coverage developed for the Land and Soil Capability (LSC) dataset.

The dominant soil type for each mapping unit was allocated using a modified listing of GSG soil types outlined in Table 1 (see dataset package)

Individual map units have been grouped and dissolved according to the Soil Type field to produce the final map.
