ISRIC – World Soil Information produces and serves quality-assessed soil data and interpreted soil information to international science communities, policy communities and private sectors dealing with issues such as food production, land and water management, climate change, environmental quality, land use planning, and biodiversity.
ISRIC – World Soil Information has been developing a world soil information service WOSIS to serve quality-assessed, georeferenced soil data (point, polygon, and grid) to the international community upon their standardisation and harmonisation; and produced global gridded soil maps at resolution of 1km and 250m, which can be displayed in field through SoilInfo App. ISRIC is jointly developing a soil quality assessment tool (Soil Quality App) for practical use in agriculture.
