Description
1.5 CSEs
In the class titled Assessing the Site, service providers were introduced to the tools available to them to look at the location beforehand, assessing best access routes, anticipating logistical problems. This class is both for service providers and installers.
- This class will allow attendees to experiment and to review an actual site using:
- Google Earth’s layers and functions.
- Web Soil Survey (WSS) provides soil data and information produced by the National Cooperative Soil Survey. It is operated by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and provides access to the largest natural resource information system in the world. NRCS has soil maps and data available online for more than 95 percent of the nation’s counties and anticipates having 100 percent in the near future. The site is updated and maintained online as the single authoritative source of soil survey information. It is an invaluable tool for assessment and troubleshooting onsite systems.
