Subsoil Acidity (ASRIS)
Department for Environment and Water
Soils are classified according to the pH of the subsoil layer. Subsoil is defined as the depth range 30-80 cm. Rankings are made according to pH measurements and extrapolation... -
Soil Rootzone Depth Potential CA - Sensitive horticultural crops (e.g....
Department for Environment and Water
Potential rootzone depth for irrigated horticultural crops is affected by a range of soil parameters (e.g. soil physical condition, hard rock or hardpan, soluble salts, boron... -
Soil Salinity - Non-watertable (magnesia patches)
Department for Environment and Water
Non-watertable salinity (or dry saline land) is where soil contains elevated levels of soluble salts that are not associated with a watertable. Magnesia patches occur where high... -
Current and Future Potential Soil Acidity (ASRIS)
Department for Environment and Water
Combines the assessment of soils that are currently acidic (or prone to acidification in the short term) and soils that are not currently recognised as acid prone, but could... -
Soil Available Waterholding Capacity
Department for Environment and Water
Available waterholding capacity refers to the potential volume (on a per unit area basis, expressed in mm) within the rootzone of a soil that can be filled by rainfall or... -
Future Acidification Potential (ASRIS)
Department for Environment and Water
Future acidification potential is a term which applies to soils which are not currently acidic (or prone to acidification in the short term), but could conceivably become acidic... -
Soil Sodium Toxicity (proportion of land affected)
Department for Environment and Water
High natural levels of sodium, that are toxic to some plants, are typically associated with deep subsoil sodicity, high pH, high boron and moderate salinity, and occur mostly in... -
Physical Condition of Surface Soil
Department for Environment and Water
Physical condition of surface soil mapping highlights areas where plant growth may be impeded due to poor surface soil structure, predominantly due to a condition known as hard... -
Soil Sodium Toxicity (depth to toxic layer)
Department for Environment and Water
High natural levels of sodium, that are toxic to some plants, are typically associated with deep subsoil sodicity, high pH, high boron and moderate salinity, and occur mostly in... -
Soil Wind Erosion Potential
Department for Environment and Water
Wind erosion potential, based on Soil Landscape Map Units of Southern South Australia, describes the susceptibility of land to erosion by wind, which is particularly an issue on... -
Soil Boron Toxicity (proportion of land affected)
Department for Environment and Water
Boron is an essential trace element occurring naturally in soil, but is toxic to many agricultural plants at high concentrations. High boron levels are often associated with... -
Soil Deep Drainage Potential
Department for Environment and Water
Deep drainage refers to the capacity of the deep subsoil and the material immediately below the soil profile to allow excess water to move downwards into deep sediments or... -
Soil Boron Toxicity (depth to toxic layer)
Department for Environment and Water
Boron is an essential trace element occurring naturally in soil, but is toxic to many agricultural plants at high concentrations. High boron levels are often associated with... -
Depth to Watertable (soils)
Department for Environment and Water
Depth to watertable mapping highlights land where watertables may be sufficiently shallow on a seasonal basis to affect plant growth. It is intended to describe soil conditions... -
State Heritage Areas
Department for Environment and Water
A state heritage area is a clearly defined region with outstanding natural or cultural elements significant to South Australia's development and identity. A state heritage area... -
Surface Water Catchments
Department for Environment and Water
The catchment layer contains boundaries of watersheds where surfacewater drains to a common point into the sea or a major waterbody. Attributes include drainage division, basin... -
Mt Lofty Ranges Streams – Permanent Pools or Dams Less than 15m
Department for Environment and Water
This dataset portrays all of the pools or dams with a length less than 15m visible in 3rd order streams and greater in the Mount Lofty Ranges. -
Shipwrecks
Department for Environment and Water
This data set is an extract from the South Australian Shipwrecks Database. The database includes all known shipwrecks located in South Australian and Australian waters adjacent... -
Marine Park Special Purpose Areas
Department for Environment and Water
This dataset identifies special purpose areas to accommodate existing and future uses and activities and/or managed areas within the SA Marine Parks Network. -
Videography Flightlines of Watercourses
Department for Environment and Water
Digital video imagery of 3,800km of watercourses within the Mount Lofty Ranges was captured with the use of a gyro-stabilised digital video camera installed on the underside of...
