SoilGrids250m 2.0 - Sand content aggregated 5000m

Sand content (50/63-2000 micro meter) mass fraction in ‰ at 6 standard depths. Predictions were derived using a digital soil mapping approach based on Quantile Random Forest, drawing on a global compilation of soil profile data and environmental layers. This map is the result of resampling the mean SoilGrids 250 m predictions (Poggio et al. 2021) for each 5000 m cell.
