Abstract:
The soil data used in the database were obtained from profile observations and soil survey from IITA research sites over the last 10-15 years for Nigeria. We removed all records ISRIC, as these data have already been ingested into WoSIS. This step was taken to avoid duplication, and prevent double counting in data availability
