The maps (by Continents) were published originally at the scale on 1:5,000,000. They have been recently digitized in Arc/Info format by/or in cooperation with Eros Data Center. I have recommended their acquisition by CIESIN while ago; they have been approved by the data selection commitee. Copies of these maps currently reside at the EDC.

I believe the data is in ArC/Info format and was wondering if anyone had tried using it with ArcView or other software? I assume that this is "more" than their printed set of soil maps - true/false? Any comments greatly welcomed. David A. Cobb Harvard Map Collection
