OpenLandMap Sand Content

  • This dataset provides sand content data in % (kg/kg) at six standard depths (0, 10, 30, 60, 100, and 200 cm) globally at a 250m resolution, excluding Antarctica.

  • The data is based on machine learning predictions using a global compilation of soil profiles and samples.

  • The dataset includes six bands, each representing sand content at a specific depth, with values ranging from 1% to 100%.

  • The dataset is available from 1950-01-01T00:00:00Z to 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z and is provided by EnvirometriX Ltd.
