Soil waterlogging hazard was digitally mapped as part of the DPIPWE Water for Profit Program to enhance identification of Enterprise Suitability by effectively incorporating a sustainability measure of vulnerable soils. The mapping shows areas where a waterlogging hazard might exist if sufficient management is not applied, which could lead to soil resource degradation, trafficability issues and crop losses. Assigned classes are; Nil, Very Low, Low, Moderate, High and Very High as classified ratings of a waterlogging hazard index. The index was generated by combining Digital Soil Mapping (DSM) inputs of the soil properties of soil drainage index and permeability index, and mapped areas of flood risk, where very poor drainage and low permeability imply a high waterlogging hazard, and rapid drainage and high permeability imply a low waterlogging hazard. The mapping covers the entire state of Tasmania at 30m resolution.
