soilDB 2.6.2 (2021-05-16)

  • Added formativeElement argument to taxaExtent() (SoilWeb taxon extent function)
    • "Formative elements" are derived from the dictionary provided by the {SoilTaxonomy} package (https://cran.r-project.org/package=SoilTaxonomy)
    • For example: taxaExtent("abruptic", level = 'subgroup', formativeElement = TRUE) will get an 800m grid (for SSURGO data in CONUS) showing extent of taxa that have "abruptic" in subgroup-level taxon name
  • fetchNASIS(from="pedons") result now contains the "taxclname" (full family-level taxon name) field from the NASIS pedon table; this value is calculated based on contents of petaxhistory child table
  • get_SDA_interpretation and get_SDA_property now support aggregation method="NONE" allowing for returning properties, classes and ratings for individual components or horizons (#181)
  • ISSR800.wcs and mukey.wcs now return a result that inherits from try-error (and a message) if the Web Coverage Service query fails
