Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

Description

New-ID: NBI156 The Soils Types of Senegal Dataset Documentation File: SENEGAL2.IMG Code: 146003-001 Raster Member IMG files are in IDRISI format Originally digitized from the UNESCO/FAO Soil Map of the world (1977) for the UNEP/FAO/ESRI Database for Africa by ESRI, USA, GRID-Geneva rasterized the Soil Types dataset of Senegal for UNEP/GRID/WHO/CISFAM Senegal Database with a cell size of 30 seconds and two minutes lat/lon (approximately one- and four kilometeter-square pixels, respectively).

The Soil Types dataset of Senegal has 16 classes and water. Contact: UNEP/GRID-Nairobi, P.O. Box 30552 Nairobi, Kenya FAO, Soil Resources, Management and Conservation Service, 00100, Rome, Italy The SENEGAL2 file shows FAO soil types of Senegal. REMARK: file extracted from continental scale, hence may have limited applicability at national scale.
