Soil Survey
• Soil survey is the study and mapping of soils in their natural environment
• It is the systematic examination, description, classification and mapping of soils in an area
![Page 9: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
SOIL SURVEY
A soil survey describes the characteristics of the soils,classifies them, plots the boundaries of the soils on anappropriate base map, and makes predictions about the behavior of soils.
Thus soil survey provide basic information on soils for planning developmental programmes.

Soil Pollution
![Page 17: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Soil, and pollution
POLLUTION- An undesirable change in the physical chemical or biological
characteristics of air, water or soil.
SOIL POLLUTION- The undesirable change in physical, chemical and biological
characteristics of soil, which are harmful for all living beings.
![Page 18: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
KINDS OF SOIL POLLUTION-
1) Agricultural pesticides
2) Disposal of solid wastes on land
3) Mining activities
4) Biological agents
5) Radioactive pollutants
6) Heavy metal pollutants
![Page 19: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Agricultural practices-
The use of indiscriminate use of inorganic nutrients
for a long time gradually declines the soil fertility.
The intensive inappropriate tillage practices lowers
the capability of soil.
![Page 20: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Disposal of solids wastes on land
The solid wastes are mostly generated from industrial, domestic and urban and agricultural sources.
The solid wastes generated in indian cities mainly contains sludge, glass materials, metallic cans, fibres, waste paper, packing materials, leather.
![Page 21: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Mining activities-
The top layer of soil is generally damaged or destroyed during both shaft and strip mining practices.
The uncontrolled mine fires may also destroy the productivity of the areas near mines.
![Page 22: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Biological agents-
The major sources of biological agents causing soil pollution are human excreta, animal and bird excreta, muncipal wastes, faulty sanitation.
The industrial parasites are among the most threatening biological agents.
![Page 23: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Radioactive pollutants-
Huge amounts of radio-active substances result from nuclear device explosion, nuclear testing laborateries, nuclear power plants and weapons.
All these are responsible for enhancing soil pollution.
![Page 24: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Heavy metal pollutants
• Heavy metals in soil are basically due to industrial discharges.
• Certain heavy metals eg. Zn, Cu, Ni, Cd and Pb are also present in significant levels in sewage sludge and reach the soil where they become part of life cycle and affects adversely.
![Page 25: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
DON’T USE EXCESS CHEMICAL FERTILIZERS
![Page 26: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
DON’T USE EXCESS CHEMICAL PESTICIDE
![Page 27: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Effects of soil pollution
1. Soil fertility is adversely affected if pesticide remain in soil for longer period.
2. Excessive use of fertilizers and pesticide chemicals does not allow microbial flora and fauna in soil to flourish.
3. Excessive use of nitrogen and phosphatic fertilizer makes the soil deficient in other micronutrients like Zn, Cu etc. and causes nutrition imbalance.
4. Pesticides like DDT, dieldrin etc. are known to seep gradually through soil into ground water and thus contaminate public drinking water supplies.
![Page 28: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
5. People in contact with pesticides are extremely prone to get poisoned.
6. Some of the industrial wastes are extremely toxic for organisms.
7. Solid urban wastes and industrial wastes produce foul and offensive odour.
8. Heavy metals and other toxic substances can destroy benefecial microorganisms of the soil.
9. Radioactive pollutants can cause a number of undesirable disease of digestive system if they enter our body through food chain.
![Page 29: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Control of soil pollution-
1. Adoption of sustainable agriculture having organic farming and use of biofertilizers, biointegrated pest management and proper water management, composting etc.
2. Adoption of suitable and proper industrial and urban wastes management.
3. Adequate controlled use of heavy metal and toxic substances.
4. Non-biodegradable wastes can be recycled and used again
5. Biomedical wastes should be carefully disposed off
so that it does not create any health hazard.

What is GIS?
• GIS = Geographic Information System– Links databases and maps– Manages information about places– Helps answer questions such as:
• Where is it?• What else is nearby?• Where is the highest concentration of ‘X’?• Where can I find things with characteristic ‘Y’?• Where is the closest ‘Z’ to my location?
![Page 55: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
• Geographic Information System• A GIS is a computer system capable of capturing,
storing, analyzing, and displaying geographically referenced information; that is, data identified according to location.
• Practitioners also define a GIS as including the procedures, operating personnel, and spatial data that go into the system.
What is a GIS?
![Page 56: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
• A GIS makes it possible to link, or integrate, information that is difficult to associate through any other means.
• Thus, a GIS can use combinations of mapped variables to build and analyze new variables.
• GIS is most useful when used to perform data analysis
![Page 57: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Why Does GIS Matter?
“Almost everything that happens, happens somewhere. Knowing where something happens is critically important.”
Longley et al. (2001, 6)
Because location is so important, it is an issue in many of the problems
![Page 58: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
• the real world has a lot of spatial data– manipulation, analysis and modeling can be effective
and efficiently carried out with a GIS• the neighborhood of the intended purchase of house• the route for fire-fighting vehicles to the fire area• location of historical sites to visit• the earth surface for purposes of army
• the earth surface is a limited resource• rational decisions on space utilization• fast and quality information in decision making
THE NEED FOR GIS
![Page 59: SUDHISH SIR CLASS](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103004/55d1783bbb61eb0c788b47d5/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
complexity of management– due to the need to combine and process many
sets of data, in addition to judge as many as possible, situation that might happen.
intense competition– the need to use technology in making decisions
and strategy in the world of intense competition.

Conductivity
• Measures electric conductivity (EC) of water
• Higher value means water is a better electrical conductor
• Increases when more salt (e.g., sodium chloride) is dissolved in water
• Indirect measure of salinity• Units are μmhos/cm at 25o
C or μsiemens/cm

Salinity
• Classification of Ground Water• Composition Based on Total Dissolved
Solids Content
Salts in Sea Water
Type of Water Dissolved salt content (mg/l)
Fresh water < 1,000 mg/l
Brackish water 1,000 - 3,000 mg/l
Moderatly saline water
3,000 - 10,000 mg/l
Highly saline water 10,000 - 35,000 mg/l
Sea water > 35,000 mg/l

Salinity and irrigation
• Low salinity water – used for most crops
• Medium salinity water – used with moderate amount of leaching (potatoes, corn,
wheat, oats, and alfalfa) • High salinity water – Cannot be used on soils having restricted drainage.
• Very high salinity water – Can be used only on certain crops only if special
practices are followed
