This data descriptor has been updated to accurately reflect SoilGrids predictions, correcting a previous misattribution to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) soilGrids250m system. The correction ensures precise referencing for soil science data users.
Area of Science:
- Soil Science
- Geospatial Data
Background:
- Previous versions of the data descriptor contained an inaccurate reference.
- The reference incorrectly cited the "United Nations (UN) Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) soilGrids250m system".
Purpose of the Study:
- To correct a factual error in the data descriptor's text.
- To ensure accurate attribution of the data source.
Main Methods:
- Textual review of the data descriptor.
- Correction of the erroneous reference throughout the document.
Main Results:
- The reference to the "United Nations (UN) Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) soilGrids250m system" has been replaced.
- The text now correctly states "SoilGrids predictions".
Conclusions:
- The data descriptor is now accurately presented.
- Proper attribution of soil data sources is crucial for scientific integrity.
