What the service provides

We present mapped soil properties, county drought context and on-device tools for organizing your own observations. Data can be incomplete, outdated, approximate or unavailable. You must consider the source, date, coverage and purpose before relying on any result.

What the service does not provide

No structural inspection, diagnosis, geotechnical investigation, foundation design, repair specification, professional advice or guarantee of safety is provided. Do not use an online class or drought percentage as the sole basis for a purchase, construction or repair decision. Seek appropriately qualified local advice for the actual site.

Your input and files

You control the information you enter, save and export. Keep copies you need. Browser storage may be unavailable or deleted. Your notes are observations, not findings verified by us. This website does not verify or endorse contractors.

Responsible use

Do not misuse the APIs, try to bypass request limits or submit information you are not entitled to share. Service availability is not guaranteed. For an immediate threat, use appropriate local emergency assistance, not this website.
