Short summary
This dataset presents the first soil maps for the region produced using digital mapping techniques. It includes predictions for ten major physical and chemical soil properties at various depths, plus a map of total soil depth. For each property, we selected the most accurate models and key environmental drivers. In Southwestern Asia and many arid or semi-arid regions, detailed soil data are often missing. This dataset fills that gap, supporting agriculture, research, planning, and local policy.
