Soil Landscapes of the Port Stephens 1:100,000 Sheet |
Abstract |
This map is one of a series of soil landscape maps that are intended for all of central and eastern NSW, based on standard 1:100,000 and 1:250,000 topographic sheets. The map provides an inventory of soil and landscape properties of the area and identifies major soil and landscape qualities and constraints. It integrates soil and topographic features into single units with relatively uniform land management requirements. Soils are described in terms of soil materials in addition to the Great Soil Group and Northcote classification systems. Related Datasets: The dataset area is also covered by the mapping of Acid Sulphate Soil Risk Mapping. 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.

Lineage |
Provisional soil landscapes were established, based firstly on the dominant geomorphic process responsible for the formation of the landscape and secondly, on the geological parent material. The boundaries of these provisional soil landscapes were mapped using stereoscopic interpretation of 1:40,000 black and white aerial photographs transferred onto 1:25,000 base maps. After field checking these boundaries and detailed investigation of the soils, the provisional landscapes were confirmed, amalgamated or sub-divided. The resulting soil landscapes are presented on the map at 1:100,000 scale in groups based on their dominant geomorphic process. A colour has been allocated to each group. Soils were examined and described in detail at over 247 sites and inspected at many hundreds more over the 34 soil landscapes. At each described site, soil morphological data and site information were recorded on Soil Data Cards and later transferred into the Soil and Land Information System (SALIS). 145 soil samples were collected for laboratory analysis. The GIS shapefile linework has been updated to reflect latest coastline and hydrology data. Therefore small differences will occur between the shapefile and hard copy map. |
