What to Find Here
Welcome to our central hub for sharing information about soil resources. Here, you will find maps and statistics about how soil varies across time and space. We also have explanations for how that data was generated and guidance for interpreting that information, especially regarding land use and management. Research to expand this information is supported by a team of researchers (faculty, staff, and students) dedicated to expanding our understanding of soil landscapes.
Who We Are
The Geospatial Laboratory for Soil Informatics (GLSI) is a specialized research facility that integrates geospatial technologies with soil science. It employs tools such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS), remote sensing, and spatial modeling to study and manage soil resources. The laboratory’s work is vital for addressing challenges related to agriculture, environmental sustainability, land management, and natural resource conservation.
