iSDAsoil: soil extractable Phosphorus for Africa predicted at 30 m resolution at 0-20 and 20-50 cm depths (Q6688886)

iSDAsoil dataset soil extractable Phosphorus (P) log-transformed predicted at 30 m resolution for 020 and 2050 cm depth intervals. Data has been projected in WGS84 coordinate system and compiled as COG.Predictions have been generated using multi-scale Ensemble Machine Learning with 250 m (MODIS, PROBA-V, climatic variables and similar) and 30 m (DTM derivatives, Landsat, Sentinel-2 and similar) resolution covariates. For model training we use a pan-African compilations of soil samples and profiles (iSDA points, AfSPDB, and other national and regional soil datasets).

Layer description: sol_log.p_mehlich3_m_30m_*..*cm_2001..2017_v0.13_wgs84.tif = predicted soil extractable Phosphorus mean value, sol_log.p_mehlich3_md_30m_*..*cm_2001..2017_v0.13_wgs84.tif = predicted soil extractable Phosphorus model (prediction) errors, Model errors were derived using bootstrapping: md is derived as standard deviation of individual learners from 5-fold cross-validation (using spatial blocking). The model 5-fold cross-validation (mlr::makeStackedLearner) for this variable indicates: Variable: log.p_mehlich3 R-square: 0.486 Fitted values sd: 0.687 RMSE: 0.707 Random forest model: Call: stats::lm(formula = f, data = d) Residuals: Min 1Q Median 3Q Max -3.2892 -0.3942 -0.0637 0.2614 4.9466 Coefficients: Estimate Std.
