EXPERIENCE OF CREATING OF SOIL MAPS IN INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM WRB
Word Reference Base for Soil Rеsources(WRB) is the universal official classificationsystem, allowing coordinating nationalclassifications. It includes two blocks:abstract base and WRB classification system.The important problem is correlation ofnational genetic-factor classifications withsubstantively-genetic system WRB. Thecentral modes or archetypes are used forcorrelation. First of all it is necessary toposition the conformity of taksons to nationalclassification WRE. It is more convenient todo it on the general algorithm of diagnosticsof bedrocks in WPS in ten steps. As a whole the correlation of taksonsnational classification with WRB has appearedsatisfactory, allowing to compound medium -and large-scale maps of Belarus with used theclassification approaches WRB and traditionalmaps. Authors had been created a soil mapof Korelichi district in WRB classificationsystem. Creating of a digital soil map ofthe country allows receiving representationabout tlie structure of soil types in WRB andnational system.
