National Geochemical Survey of Australia: soil data
Description
A dataset containing the geochemical composition of soil samples covering approx 2/3
of Australia, at a spatial resolution of 1 sample/5000 $km^2$.
The original data is published by Geosciences Australia under the Creative
Commons CC4 Licence + Attribution (CC-BY-SA-4.0).
The provided data set has additional information and
some pre-treatment with respect to the one available in the references below. These changes:
Usage
NGSAustralia
Format
An object of class tbl_df (inherits from tbl, data.frame) with 5259 rows and 76 columns.
Details
Concentrations are all reported as mg/kg, also known as parts per million (ppm). Values below
detection limit are reported as minus the detection limit, as standardised in package
"compositions".
The samples were complemented with information about their belonging to one of the
major crustal blocks (MCB) of Australia.
Easting and Northing coordinates were computed using the Lambert conformal conic projection of
Australia (earth ellipsoid GRS80; standard parallels: 18S and 36S latitude; central meridian:
134E longitude).
