The Soil and Terrain Database Map of East Africa is a computer system for the storage, display, interpretation and analysis of the Soil Map of East Africa at scale 1:1.000.000. The system consists of the soil and terrain database with corresponding soil maps, that are accessed by the programme for visualization in different viewer formats. Various interactive querying and selection tools provide easy access to specific parts of the database for display as thematic map, data browser or data entry form.
