Brief description
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. Soils are described in terms of soil materials in addition to the Great Soil Group and Northcote soil classification systems.\r\n\r\n__Related Datasets:__ The dataset area is also covered by the mapping of Acid Sulphate Soil Risk Mapping .\r\n\r\n__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.\r\n\r\n__References:__ Morand D.T., 1994, _Soil Landscapes of the Lismore-Ballina 1:100,000 Sheets_ report, NSW Department of Land and Water Conservation, Sydney.\r\n\r\nMorand D.T., 2009, _Soil Landscapes of the Lismore-Ballina 1:100,000 Sheets_ Ed. 2 map, NSW Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water, Sydney.Full description
