English: I retrieved the soil pH maps from . In GIMP 2.4.3 I used the "Select by Color Tool" (threshold 15.0) to create pH-specific maps. Note that the original maps do not indicate actual pH values in the pH scale. For soils with acidic pH, I included the colors indicated by the leftmost 14 bars in the pH scale, ranging from red to pink.
Then, using the initial soil pH and the aluminium content, the amount of lime needed to raise the pH to a desired level can be calculated. [68] Amendments other than agricultural lime that can be used to increase the pH of soil include wood ash, industrial calcium oxide , magnesium oxide, basic slag (calcium silicate), and oyster shells.
English: Effect of pH on the root availability of the essential elements in soil. Blue denotes the ideal soil pH for the majority of plants (slightly acidic). Inspired by an illustration from the North Carolina Extension Gardener Handbook
This is a list of free and open-source software for geological data handling and interpretation. The list is split into broad categories, depending on the intended use of the software and its scope of functionality. Notice that 'free and open-source' requires that the source code is available and users are given a free software license.

The Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) is a soil classification system used in engineering and geology to describe the texture and grain size of a soil. The classification system can be applied to most unconsolidated materials, and is represented by a two-letter symbol. Each letter is described below (with the exception of Pt):
Dia has special objects to help draw entity-relationship models, Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams, flowcharts, network diagrams, and simple electrical circuits. It is also possible to add support for new shapes by writing simple XML files, using a subset of Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) to draw the shape.
A series of simple drawings made using Inkscape. With practice and skill, drawings of very high quality can be produced using this open-source software. As these are vector graphics, the images can be scaled to any size, large or small, without loss of quality. Inkscape is a free program used to edit vector graphics.
