INTRODUCTION
Geographic Information System (GIS) an information system that provides
collection, storage, processing, analysis
and display of spatial data and
associated non-spatial, as well as getting
their information and knowledge based
on the geographical space.

Decision support system
Information Technology
Soil information systems based on database obtained through
RS, GIS, Ground survey and Decision support system have
immense potential in
Planning, management, conservation and Sustainable
natural resource use.
What is the Need?
1.
Scientific diagnosis of soil
2.
Establish the potentials and limitations
3.
Optimal Land use planning
4.
Monitoring problem soils and degradation
5.
Basis for transfer of technology
6.
Aid in decision making

Historical data
Soil information system based on database obtained through remote
sensing and ground survey in combination with Geographic
Information System and decision support systems can be developed.
As GIS supports spatial query and display of results in the system has
immense potential in planning, judicious management, conservation
and sustainable use of soil, land and crop resources.

__
Practice work
topic: definition soil profile and soil characteristic
 To make soil profile and horizont
definition.
 To collect input database for soil
information modeling
 To generate an attribute data using ISRI
software.
Literature reference
Conclution
 Wide use of computers makes enable to
completely transmission to paperless
technology of field work performance.

Regarding to configuration
computer software, computers can be
used both an additional way under
performing survey operations and serve
as a core of computer system of
collection and processing of field
information.
