A manual on how to use the Soil Data Of Africa system.
Digital Soil Mapping (DSM) is a digital variation to traditional soil mapping. Modern digital techniques are used to predict the distribution of soil properties in an area.
A Jupyter Notebook demonstrating how to build AI models for predicting soil properties using Mid-Infrared (MIR) spectral data. The tutorial progresses through three levels of proficiency: Beginner, Intermediate, and Expert, leveraging the spectraxai library
Spectraxai is a python library to easily develop XAI models for spectral datasets.
This document introduces a generic data model implementing the ISO 28258 standard. Furthermore, the data model captures the extensive code-lists gathered in the GloSIS web ontology as thesauri. This data model is intended as a template to be specialised in particular projects or use cases.
A repository for the development and maintenance of the relational database for the Soils4Africa soil information system.
Resources provided here will support knowledge and skills development on various steps of the Soil Information Workflow, especially to develop soil information system on the national level. The library contains resources provided by various organisations.
The framework helps to find resources and tools to support you with the design and development of national SISs.
Guidelines to improve the Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reuse of digital assets. The principles emphasise machine-actionability (i.e., the capacity of computational systems to find, access, interoperate, and reuse data with none or minimal human intervention) because humans increasingly rely on computational support to deal with data as a result of the increase in volume, complexity, and creation speed of data.
A commandline tool to create and extract metadata from a file repository containing various spatial datasets. The extracted metadata can be exported in various standardised model and used to populate a catalogue or configure a mapserver.
