Abstract
The USDA-NRCS Web Soil Survey (WSS) is a new electronic version of the Soil Survey that includes soils of all 50 states with the same great content but in a searchable, interactive format that is quick and efficient to use. Once you have found the site-specific soil information you need, WSS provides you a checklist to select the categories of information you want to develop into a professional-looking printable map and report that can also be saved in Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) format. This article shows you where to access the WSS on the Internet and how to get started.
