Milovac, Josipa; Ingwersen, Joachim; Warrach-Sagi, Kirsten

Dataset
Summary
Data contains the dominating soil type in a grid cell for Germany in ~1km horizontal resolution. The data are based on soil texture data source: BÜK 1000, BGR, Hannover, 2007, but recassified according to the STATSGO classification table of WRF for NOAH and NOAH_MP.

Horizontal resolution: 0.0083333333333333°
Type/units: categorical/1-16 categories
Missing_value: 241.0
Projection: regular latitude longitude
File format: binary (readable in WRF-WPS); Description of the model (WRF user site) can be found at: http://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/users/
