摘要: A digital soil mapping exercise over a large extent and at high resolution is computationally expensive procedure. It may take days or weeks to obtain the final maps visually evaluate prediction models when using desktop workstation. To increase speed of time-consuming procedures, use supercomputers common practice. GoogleTM has developed product specifically designed for purposes (Earth Engine), allowing users advantage its computing power mobility cloud-based solution. In this work, we explore feasibility platform by presenting two examples contiguous United States. We also discuss advantages limitations current development stage, potential improvements towards fully functional platform. HighlightsIt possible include as part workflow.Map generation 40-100 times faster compared with traditional mapping.To be complete solution, implementation geostatistical methodologies needed.We encourage researches participate during beta-testing period improve it.
