Soil Science & Soil Physics Data Sources
- UNSODA: Particle size distribution, retention curve and unsaturated hydraulic conductivity database (bulk density, organic matter content and additional information regarding the soil and the experimental procedures is included). Has been widely used to develop and test Pedo-Transfer Functions. The interactive software for DOS includes a DBMS and an optimization code for the estimation of soil hydraulic function parameters.
Authors: Leij, F. J., W. J. Alves, M. Th. van Genuchten, and J. R. Williams., USDA-ARS Salinity Laboratory, Riverside/CA.
- Grizzly Soil Database Particle size distribution, retention curve and unsaturated hydraulic conductivity for 660 soils
Windows Software can be downloaded
Authors : Randel Haverkamp, Christian Zammit, and Faycal Bouraoui
- HYPRES: HYdraulic PRoperties of European Soils Database. Responsible: Henk Woesten (SC-DLO) and Allan Lilly (MLURI). It appears the data are not accessible via WWW at the moment (work on HYPRES is in progress).
- Zobler World Soils Dataset
- SOIL DATA - Estimation of the waterholding-capacity of soils in Europe. The compilation of a soil dataset.(A predecessor of HYPRES)
- SOIL, a unsaturated flow and transport code by Per Erik Jansson that comes with the complete Swedish database of soil physical properties (PFPROF). The database contains basic and hydraulic property data of single horizons in the context of complete soil profiles.
- MACRO_DB - a decision-support tool for predicting pesticide fate and mobility in soils by Nicholas Jarvis.The system currently allows access to three soils databases : SEISMIC (c. 400 U.K. benchmark soils; Hollis et al., 1993), MARKDATA (26 Swedish soils), and a database that the user can develop independently. Automatic estimation procedures (pedo-transfer functions)
translate the soils information into model parameter values. Two pesticide databases are available. The PETE database (Nicholls, 1994) contains information for over 600
common compounds. Databases are linked to MACRO, a Non-steady state model of waterflow and solute transport in macroporous soil

- HYPPZ online at INRA, a database of agricultural Pests + Crops.
- FAO ECOCROP1 and ECOCROP2
The information in Ecocrop 1 permits the identification of 1710 plant species whose most important climate and soil requirements match
the information on soil and climate entered by the user.
The database in Ecocrop 2 is designed as a library of studies on crop responses in relation to environmental and management factors. The
program is created to provide information for crop modelling and at the same time as a tool for scientists to organise and retrieve
their own specific information on plant species of interest to them.
