Cwkagz This data covers the Chilliwack (102) and Agassiz (106) soil areas. Map sheets: 92h04b, 92h04c, 92h004d, 92h04e, 92h04f, 92h04g, 92h05a, 92h05b, 92h05c, 92h05d, 92h05c, 92h05d, 92h05h, 92h06d, 92h06e Scale: 1 : 25 000 Base information: National Topographic Series, published circa 1976 Data_cart: use files soilcart.dbf, sc_layr1.dbf and sc_layr2.dbf to link with the soils attribute table. They can be brought into ArcView as .dbf files under tables and then linked by the "key" field. These files will display all the soil data collected in the field for that particular entry. Due to limitations of DBase the one database had to be divided into three. Working files contain, Lavan1_a.dbf and Lavan1_b.dbf which are structure files that created Cwkag1_a.dbf and Cwag1_b.dbf. Loadsc1.prg is the program used on these files to create the linking files. See SoilCart.gif. Explaination of the three files is as follows: Soilcart.dbf (soil cartographic file) Is used to code non-depth data for every unique combination of soil name, association and soil phase(s) in the project area, including non soils. The purpose of the cartographic file is to store attribute data describing the range of chemical and physical properties associated with each soil in the project area. Sc_layer1.dbf Is used to code depth data and to store attribute data describing texture and parent material properties associated with each soil in the project area. Sc_layer2.dbf Is used to code depth data and to store attribute information describing chemical properties associated with each soil in the project area. Data Specifications: Kenk, E. and Sondheim, M.W. 1997. Data Entry and Validation Procedures for Soil, Agriculture Capability, Surficial Geology and the All Purpose Entity, CAPAMP Volume 1. British Columbia Ministry of Environment and Parks Thematic Mapping Geographic Information System (MOEP Manual, ISSN 0835-9180;10). TRANSLATION INFORMATION Source Data: Translation from IGDS files to ArcInfo coverages. PAMAP GIS used in the translation process. Arc_data: contains ArcInfo files that can be brought into ArcVeiw by adding a theme. The agricultural capability can be found under ag_cap as cwkagz and soils classifictaion can be found under soils as cwkagz. The cwkagz_d and d_cwkagz are the point files and v_cwkagz is the vector file. e00: contains the transfer files from Pamap to ArcInfo. "d" represents a database and "v" represents a vector file. "a" represents ag_cap and "s" soils. Graphics: are from the Capamp disc and are unaltered. Pamap: contain all the pamap files that where converted from IGDS. The joined map sheets are in the cwkagx.hdr file. Some DBase programs and Dbase files (.dbf) are also in this file which where used to manipulate the database associated with map tags. Raw data: is the .dat files from the Capamp disc and are unaltered. Created By: Karen Moores, Boyd Porteous and Darrin Grund January, 2001
