Legacy soil maps in Central Iran get a detailed upgrade for better management.
The researchers used advanced methods to improve an existing soil map in Central Iran. They tested three different ways to make the map more detailed and accurate. The results showed that the new maps were more detailed but slightly less accurate overall. The fuzzy c-means and DSMART methods were better at creating detailed maps compared to the k-means method. The choice of method depends on the level of detail needed and the available information.
