SoilGrids
SoilGrids is a free to use online digital soil map platform based on a global compilation of soil profile data and environmental layers, that allows you to look at different soil characteristics worldwide. SoilGrids is designed as a globally consistent, data-driven system that predicts soil properties and classes using global covariates and globally fitted models. It is based on modelled data, and so if you are looking for detailed localised information it may be better to use national soil maps, which are usually based on more detailed input soil information and therefore are often more accurate than SoilGrids (within the local coverage area).
