European Soil Database (ESDB)

The European Soil Database (ESDB) is a comprehensive collection of soil information across Europe. It provides data on soil types, characteristics, and distribution, which helps researchers, policymakers, and land managers understand soil health and quality. The database supports sustainable land use, agricultural practices, and environmental protection by offering insights into soil properties and potential issues, such as erosion or contamination. By standardizing soil information, the ESDB facilitates cooperation among European countries and improves decisions related to agriculture, forestry, and conservation efforts.
