MD iMAP: Maryland SSURGO Soils - SSURGO Soils

This is a MD iMAP hosted service layer. Find more information at http://imap.maryland.gov. userdata and unzip the LayerFiles.zip folder.Data from the four SSURGO tables were assembled into the single table included in each map package. Data from the component table were aggregated using a dominant component model (listed below under Component Table - Dominant Component) or a weighted average model (listed below under Component Table - Weighted Average) using custom Python scripts. The the Mapunit table -  the MUAGATTAT table and the processed Component table data were joined to the Mapunit Feature Class. Field aliases were added and indexes calculated. A field named Map Symbol was created and populated with random integers from 1-10 for symbolizing the soil units in the map package.For documentation of the SSURGO dataset see:http://soildatamart.nrcs.usda.gov/SSURGOMetadata.aspxFor documentation of the Watershed Boundary Dataset see: http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/main/national/water/watersheds/datasetThe map packages contain the following attributes in the Map Units layer:Mapunit Feature Class:Survey AreaSpatial VersionMapunit SymbolMapunit KeyNational Mapunit SymbolMapunit Table:Mapunit NameMapunit KindFarmland ClassHighly Erodible Lands Classification - Wind and WaterHighly Erodible Lands Classification - WaterHighly Erodible Lands Classification - WindInterpretive FocusIntensity of MappingLegend KeyMapunit SequenceIowa Corn Suitability RatingLegend Table:Project ScaleTabular VersionMUAGGATT Table:Slope Gradient - Dominant ComponentSlope Gradient - Weighted AverageBedrock Depth - MinimumWater Table Depth - Annual MinimumWater Table Depth - April to June MinimumFlooding Frequency - Dominant ConditionFlooding Frequency - MaximumPonding Frequency - PresenceAvailable Water Storage 0-25 cm - Weighted AverageAvailable Water Storage 0-50 cm - Weighted AverageAvailable Water Storage 0-100 cm - Weighted AverageAvailable Water Storage 0-150 cm - Weighted AverageDrainage Class - Dominant ConditionDrainage Class - WettestHydrologic Group - Dominant ConditionIrrigated Capability Class - Dominant ConditionIrrigated Capability Class - Proportion of Mapunit with Dominant ConditionNon-Irrigated Capability Class - Dominant ConditionNon-Irrigated Capability Class - Proportion of Mapunit with Dominant ConditionRating for Buildings without Basements - Dominant ConditionRating for Buildings with Basements - Dominant ConditionRating for Buildings with Basements - Least LimitingRating for Buildings with Basements - Most LimitingRating for Septic Tank Absorption Fields - Dominant ConditionRating for Septic Tank Absorption Fields - Least LimitingRating for Septic Tank Absorption Fields - Most LimitingRating for Sewage Lagoons - Dominant ConditionRating for Sewage Lagoons - Dominant ComponentRating for Roads and Streets - Dominant ConditionRating for Sand Source - Dominant ConditionRating for Sand Source - Most ProbableRating for Paths and Trails - Dominant ConditionRating for Paths and Trails - Weighted AverageErosion Hazard of Forest Roads and Trails - Dominant ComponentHydric Classification - PresenceRating for Manure and Food Processing Waste - Weighted AverageComponent Table - Weighted Average:Mean Annual Air Temperature - High Value Mean Annual Air Temperature - Low Value Mean Annual Air Temperature - Representative Value Albedo - High Value Albedo - Low Value Albedo - Representative Value Slope - High Value Slope - Low Value Slope - Representative Value Slope Length - High Value Slope Length - Low Value Slope Length - Representative Value Elevation - High Value Elevation - Low Value Elevation - Representative Value Mean Annual Precipitation - High Value Mean Annual Precipitation - Low Value Mean Annual Precipitation - Representative Value Days between Last and First Frost - High Value Days between Last and First Frost - Low Value Days between Last and First Frost - Representative Value Crop Production Index Range Forage Annual Potenti
