description: SoilGrids2 (SoilGrids 2.0) provides global gridded soil property maps at approximately 250 m spatial resolution. The dataset includes predicted soil properties such as bulk density, soil organic carbon content, soil pH, soil texture fractions (sand, silt, clay), and coarse fragments, among others. SoilGrids products are discoverable via the ISRIC Data Hub (GeoNetwork catalog) and distributed through ISRIC file services (e.g., WebDAV directories under files.isric.org/soilgrids/).
