The information was prepared by digitizing maps, by compiling information onto a planimetric correct base and digitizing, or by revising digitized maps using remotely sensed and other information. This data set consists of georeferenced digital map data and computerized attribute data. The map data are in a soil survey area extent format and include a detailed, field verified inventory of soils and miscellaneous areas that normally occur in a repeatable pattern on the landscape and that can be cartographically shown at the scale mapped. A special soil features layer (point and line features) is optional. This layer displays the location of features too small to delineate at the mapping scale, but they are large enough and contrasting enough to significantly influence use and management. The soil map units are linked to attributes in the National Soil Information System relational database, which gives the proportionate extent of the component soils and their properties. SSURGO depicts information about the kinds and distribution of soils on the landscape. The soil map and data used in the SSURGO product were prepared by soil scientists as part of the National Cooperative Soil Survey.

Use Constraints: The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service, should be acknowledged as the data source in products derived from these data. This data set is not designed for use as a primary regulatory tool in permitting or citing decisions, but may be used as a reference source. This is public information and may be interpreted by organizations, agencies, units of government, or others based on needs; however, they are responsible for the appropriate application. Federal, State, or local regulatory bodies are not to reassign to the Natural Resources Conservation Service any authority for the decisions that they make. The Natural Resources Conservation Service will not perform any evaluations of these maps for purposes related solely to State or local regulatory programs. Photographic or digital enlargement of these maps to scales greater than at which they were originally mapped can cause misinterpretation of the data. If enlarged, maps do not show the small areas of contrasting soils that could have been shown at a larger scale. The depicted soil boundaries, interpretations, and analysis derived from them do not eliminate the need for onsite sampling, testing, and detailed study of specific sites for intensive uses. Thus, these data and their interpretations are intended for planning purposes only. Digital data files are periodically updated. Files are dated, and users are responsible for obtaining the latest version of the data. eng; USA geoscientificInformation -104.852 -103.723 32.0 32.966 publication date 2004-04-21 2013-12-17 Digital versions of hydrography, cultural features, and other associated layers that are not part of the SSURGO data set may be available from the primary organization listed in the Point of Contact.

Some of these requirements include: chains must begin and end at nodes, chains must connect to each other at nodes, chains do not extend through nodes, left and right GT-polygons are defined for each chain element and are consistent throughout, and the chains representing the limits of the file are free of gaps. The tests of logical consistency are performed using vendor software. All internal polygons are tested for closure with vendor software and are checked on hard copy plots. All data are checked for common soil lines (i.e., adjacent polygons with the same label). Edge locations generally do not deviate from centerline to centerline by more than 0.01 inch. The feature edges, descriptive attributes and feature labels of the quadrangles in the Eddy Area, New Mexico Soil Survey do not match with the quadrangles in the adjacent Chaves County, New Mexico, Southern Part, Soil Survey, and the Reeves County, Texas Soil Survey. The Eddy Area, New Mexico Soil Survey was published in 1971 at 1:20,000 and 1:31,680 scale. The classification and map unit names were finalized at the final correlation in 1966. An evaluation was made of the soil survey in 1996. It was determined that the soil map unit delineations were accurate. Three additional map units were added to the soil survey. These changes were made to reflect present day soil survey concepts, soil classification, and soil interpretations. Amendments to the correlation document reflecting these changes are on file at the NRCS New Mexico State Office. The additional map units are as follows: W-----WATER GP--- Gravel Pit ML----Mined Land 2003-01-01T00:00:00 SCS1 The final publication negatives were used to develop ratioed soil survey film positives. Soil map unit and special soil features delineations were manually recompiled from the soil survey film positives (scale: 24,000) to 4 mil. annotated stable-base overlays that were registered to multiple 7.5 minute orthophotographs. 2003-01-01T00:00:00 SCS1 NRCS1 USGS1 NRCS2 NRCS3 NRCS4 During the map compilation quality review an evaluation was made of the map unit joins for surrounding soil surveys by a soil data quality specialist. 2003-01-01T00:00:00 SCS1 USGS1 NRCS4 The annotated overlays were raster scanned on a SCANGRAPHICS CF 500 Scanner at a resolution of 300 dpi. The soil area features and special soil features were processed in LT4X Version 4.11. The soil processing consisted of raster editing, map neatline development, labeling, edge matching and vector conversion. The soil area features and special soil features were written to Digital Line Graph Optional format in LT4X. Digitizing and quality control were done by the geographic information system specialist and cartographic technicians at the Temple, Texas Digitizing and Certification Center. 2003-01-01T00:00:00 NRCS4 The soil area features and special soil features DLGs were imported into ARC/INFO 7.2.1. The 7.5 minute quadrangles for each coverage were merged together into a soil survey area and additional editing was performed. The coverages were edge matched to existing SSURGO data. New DLGs reflecting these changes were written with ARC/INFO 7.2.1. 2003-01-01T00:00:00 NRCS4 The DLG-3 Optional format files were evaluated with the October 1998 ARC/INFO SSURGO Evaluation AMLs provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service, National Cartography and Geospatial Center, Fort Worth, Texas. Upon successful completion of the SSURGO Evaluation, the DLGs were processed with the October 1998 archiving AMLs provided by the National Cartography and Geospatial Center, Fort Worth, Texas. 2003-01-01T00:00:00 NRCS4 The spatial data has been revised along the county boundary. The soil survey area coverage was evaluated with with the October 2003 ARC/INFO SSURGO Evaluation AMLs provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service, National Cartography and Geospatial Center, Fort Worth, Texas. Upon successful completion of the SSURGO Evaluation, the soil survey area coverage was processed with the October 2003 archiving AMLs provided by the National Cartography and Geospatial Center, Fort Worth, Texas. 2004-01-01T00:00:00 NRCS5 The National Soil Information System database was developed by the Natural Resources Conservation Service soil scientists according to national standards. 2004-01-01T00:00:00 SCS1 The Natural Resources Conservation Service State Soil Scientist or delegate, upon completion of data quality verification, determined that the tabular data should be released for official use.

The individual shapefiles were appended into a geodatabase for Region 8. The data were processed in ARCGIS 10.1 using a topology object with a 0.1 meter cluster tolerance for the purpose of eliminating gaps and overlaps within the Region 8 soils geodatabase. Individual soil survey area data were exported as shapefiles from the regional geodatabase. A datum transformation from NAD83 to WGS84 using the NAD_1983_To_WGS_1984_1 datum transformation method was applied to the data. The data were checked with the SSURGO Evaluation scripts provided by U.S. Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service.
