With great data comes great responsibility! @Alex_Koiter discusses open and reproducible soil science in this Science Seminar Series talk. youtube.com/watch?v=h_F4YdIY…
I have updated my little helper script to help find quarter sections in #MB. You can search for coordinates using the legal land designation and now you can search for the quarter section using coordinates. github.com/alex-koiter/curio…
Still some work to be done, including turning this in to a #RStats package.
