The clay, silt, pH, SOC, and bulk density data for up to 1.00 m across six studies (coordinates provided) found in the ARC-VOPI Experimental Farm in Roodeplaat, Pretoria, South Africa.  The results showed that while the surveyed maps contained useful qualitative data, they were not ideal for direct crop model parameterisation due to a lack of standardisation and congruence with the current South African soil classification system.
