To access the legend. double click a layer.
In the Add Data window you now see that this WMS is added to the GIS Servers folder. In the example of the pH-H2O layers the WMS appears as Soilgrids property_pH water on .Ĭlick Add and then once more Add. The SoilGrids layers are loaded to Table of Contents within ArcMap/ArcGIS.Īlternatively, browse to the added WMS layer in the Catalog, select the layer and drag the layer to the table of contents.Ĭhoose or tick a soil property layer for the depth (0-5, 5-15, 15-30, 30-60, 60-100, 100-200cm) and prediction (Q0.05, mean, Q0.5, Q0.95) you wish to evaluate. Step 5: add SoilGrids layers to ArcMap/ArcGIS project In the Add WMS Server window, copy the URL of SoilGrids Layer you wish to add to your GIS and paste the URL to column URL. For instance the WMS link for the layer pH in water (phh20) is: . Choose a Version e.g. Step 4: connect the WMS Server to the SoilGrids WMS In the Add Data window, click the box next to Look in: and scroll down to select GIS Serversĭouble click GIS Servers, in the GIS Servers window and double click Add WMS Server. The Add WMS Server window opens. Step 1: Start ArcMap and click icon ’+’ or Add Data Loading SoilGrids layers to ArcMap/ArcGIS through WMS
The page provides an overview of the SoilGrids layers, the layer names and the WMS/WCS link.īelow you will find the instructions on how to use the services server to access and display SoilGrids in ArcMap and QGIS with WMS. SoilGrids layers are provided as Web Map Service (WMS) layers and Web Coverage Service (WCS), which load dynamically in a GIS software. Instructions to access SoilGrids layers with web services
