Coordinate System: Web Mercator (EPSG:3857)
Maps from the Web Soil Survey are based on the Web Mercator
projection, which preserves direction and shape but distorts
distance and area. A projection that preserves area, such as the
Albers equal-area conic projection, should be used if more
accurate calculations of distance or area are required.

The orthophoto or other base map on which the soil lines were
compiled and digitized probably differs from the background
imagery displayed on these maps. As a result, some minor
shifting of map unit boundaries may be evident.

Hydrologic Soil Group —Randolph County, North Carolina
Description
Hydrologic soil groups are based on estimates of runoff potential. Soils are
assigned to one of four groups according to the rate of water infiltration when the
soils are not protected by vegetation, are thoroughly wet, and receive
precipitation from long -duration storms.
The soils in the United States are assigned to four groups (A, B, C, and D) and
three dual classes (A/D, B/D, and C/D). The groups are defined as follows:
Group A. Soils having a high infiltration rate (low runoff potential) when
thoroughly wet. These consist mainly of deep, well drained to excessively
drained sands or gravelly sands. These soils have a high rate of water
transmission.
Group B. Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These
consist chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well
drained soils that have moderately fine texture to moderately coarse texture.
These soils have a moderate rate of water transmission.
Group C. Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist
chiefly of soils having a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or
soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture. These soils have a slow rate of
water transmission.
Group D. Soils having a very slow infiltration rate (high runoff potential) when
thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink -swell
potential, soils that have a high water table, soils that have a claypan or clay
layer at or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious
material. These soils have a very slow rate of water transmission.
If a soil is assigned to a dual hydrologic group (A/D, B/D, or C/D), the first letter is
for drained areas and the second is for undrained areas. Only the soils that in
their natural condition are in group D are assigned to dual classes.

Aggregation Method. Dominant Condition

Hydrologic Soil Group —Randolph County, North Carolina
Aggregation is the process by which a set of component attribute values is
reduced to a single value that represents the map unit as a whole.
A map unit is typically composed of one or more "components". A component is
either some type of soil or some nonsoil entity, e.g., rock outcrop. For the
attribute being aggregated, the first step of the aggregation process is to derive
one attribute value for each of a map unit's components. From this set of
component attributes, the next step of the aggregation process derives a single
value that represents the map unit as a whole. Once a single value for each map
unit is derived, a thematic map for soil map units can be rendered. Aggregation
must be done because, on any soil map, map units are delineated but
components are not.
For each of a map unit's components, a corresponding percent composition is
recorded. A percent composition of 60 indicates that the corresponding
component typically makes up approximately 60% of the map unit. Percent
composition is a critical factor in some, but not all, aggregation methods.
The aggregation method "Dominant Condition" first groups like attribute values
for the components in a map unit. For each group, percent composition is set to
the sum of the percent composition of all components participating in that group.
These groups now represent "conditions" rather than components. The attribute
value associated with the group with the highest cumulative percent composition
is returned. If more than one group shares the highest cumulative percent
composition, the corresponding "tie -break" rule determines which value should
be returned. The "tie -break" rule indicates whether the lower or higher group
value should be returned in the case of a percent composition tie. The result
returned by this aggregation method represents the dominant condition
throughout the map unit only when no tie has occurred.
Component Percent Cutoff.- None Specified
Components whose percent composition is below the cutoff value will not be
considered. If no cutoff value is specified, all components in the database will be
considered. The data for some contrasting soils of minor extent may not be in the
database, and therefore are not considered.
Tie -break Rule: Higher
The tie -break rule indicates which value should be selected from a set of multiple
candidate values, or which value should be selected in the event of a percent
composition tie.
