Le principe général de la cartographie numérique des sols est [...] de prédire des classes de sol ou des propriétés de sol en utilisant d'une part les données pédologiques disponibles sur la zone à étudier et, d'autre part, les données spatiales représentant des éléments du paysage en relation (de causalité ou non) avec les sols, appelées dans la suite «covariables du sol».  2, record 1, French, - cartographie%20num%C3%A9rique%20des%20sols
