The Soil Survey Manual provides in a single volume the major principles and practices needed for making and using soil surveys and for assembling and using data related to
them. The Manual is intended primarily for use by soil scientists engaged in the
classification and mapping of soils and in the interpretation of soil surveys. Although the Manual is oriented to the needs of those actively engaged in preparing soil surveys for publication,workers and students who have limited soils experience or are less familiar with the soil survey process also will be able to use the information.
