- Description:
Gridded SSURGO (gSSURGO) is similar to the standard USDA-NRCS Soil Survey Geographic (SSURGO) Database product but in the format of an Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (ESRIĀ®) file geodatabase. A file geodatabase has the capacity to store much more data and thus greater spatial extents than the traditionalSSURGO product. This makes it possible to offer these data in statewide or even Conterminous United States (CONUS) tiles. gSSURGO contains all of the original soil attribute tables in SSURGO. All spatial data are stored within the geodatabase instead of externally as separate shapefiles. The raster map data have a 10-meter cell size.Both SSURGO and gSSURGO are considered products of the National Cooperative Soil Survey (NCSS) partnership.

- Use Constraints:
- The gridded SSURGO (gSSURGO) dataset was created for use in national, regional, and statewide resource planning and analysis of soils data. The raster map layer data can be readily combined with other national, regional, and local raster layers, including the National Land Cover Database (NLCD), the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) Crop Data Layer (CDL), and the National Elevation Dataset (NED).
