The Swiss Soil Information System NABODAT contains soil data from cantonal soil protection offices and some national projects. An extract of approved data can be requested with the Swiss Soil Dataset (V6, April 2022).
The soil dataset contains point data such as soil information gathered at soil profiles or from soil quality surveys. Spatial soil data such as soil maps or raster data are not part of this dataset. The data set includes various measurements and soil parameters, soil pollutant data are excluded. Most data derive from separate soil mapping projects and is therefore not representative of the entire area of Switzerland. The Swiss Soil Dataset version 6 was updated in April 2022. It contains data from about 33’000 sites.
