Soil Pits represent the most detailed descriptions made of a soil profile. They are used for classification of the soil series.
This data is used with the other profile data to generate the standard data on a soil series base which appears in the SOILSERIES and HORIZON products

The soil pit data has been recorded over many years, in many different formats. The soil surveyors entered the data and checked the information afterwards, but the potential for error is still high. The individual attributes are checked to make sure they are within the right range of values.
