I have been looking for the best soil to use in the hydrological model in south Africa Limpopo Province, but i have been strugling to find one , until i find the SOTER South Africa data but i dont know how to link it with arcswat database and also to create a look up table
Dear Ndamulelo Musumuvhi ,
May I know what is the actual problem you encounter?
Miyuru Bandara Gunathilake i have downloded the SOTER soil data from this link https://data.isric.org/geonetwork/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/c3f7cfd5-1f25-4da1-bce9-cdcdd8c1a9a9
and the the zipped file came with its own database and the image of the data as displayed in arcmap i have attached in the screenshot bellow, thus i dont know how to link it to the swat usersoil default database, which is shown in screenshot 3, is the any way that i can use that data and link it to the usersoil database found in swat? or its not possible ? and rather i also find this document online but this was done for only east africa : https://web.ics.purdue.edu/~vmerwade/education/fao_soil_tutorial.pdf
Miyuru Bandara Gunathilake thanks for the reply i really hope you can bring light to this course of min thanks in advance

send your email address, I will send you the harmonized global soil data (HWSD) base. try to check with that also.in the mean time i will look into this issue.
Hello. Did you manage to solve this problem? I am also looking for a mapping between the two databases. Thank you very much!
