A 10 arc-minute resolution raster dataset maps the near-surface soil texture and slope for Africa, derived from the 1974 FAO Soil Map of the World. Compiled by L. Zobler for the Global Ecosystems Database Project, this 1987 release provides foundational land surface properties for climate modeling. The data is georeferenced to match contemporary global vegetation datasets.
Data is in the legacy IDRISI raster format and requires a compatible tool or conversion for analysis. The accompanying ASCII documentation file is essential for correct interpretation and GIS use.
