Data were originally developed to allow web access to engineering soil map and report information, as part of the Geotechnical Data Management System application sponsored by the NJ Department of Transportation (NJDOT.) The source maps and booklets were published in the 1950's as the Engineering Soil Survey of New Jersey. The data as currently formatted are designed to be used in the GDMS redeveloped system, hosted by the NJ Office of Information Technology (NJOIT), Office of Geographic Information Systems (OGIS), for NJDOT.

The digitiing project was performed by Rutgers University. Due to the accuracy limits of the scanning and georeferencing process, these labels may not overlay other GIS data very well.

For an explanation of the attributes see the PDF report on the Rutgers Engineering Soil Survey digitizing project, and the Reports of the Engineering Soil Survey of New Jersey. Subsequent to the digitizing project, the tabular data that provided additional attributes, including a link to the report and page number in soil survey report booklet for each soil label, were joined to the feature class. The feature class now incorporates those links.

Project reports and maps of the Engineering Soil Survey of New Jersey. Each report has been converted to a PDF electronic document. Twenty-one reports were published during the early 1950's as Engineering Research Bulletins of the Rutgers University College of Engineering, by Rutgers University Press. The first report contains project description and organizational information. The other 20 cover one county each, except for a single document covering Bergen and Hudson counties.

A label point was created for each individual soil label using on-screen digitizing, assigned the appropriate soil type attributes, and grouped together by each New Jersey county. It should be noted that these are label points only, and do not represent either soil polygon centroids, nor are the points associated with any polygonal linework.
Each soil label consists of two parts. The first is a label indicating the soil type as a function of its geological composition and its soil texture, and the second is an estimate of the ground water-table conditions. Additionally, some labels use either a diagonal bar or a fractional symbol to indicate either intermingling at the surface or subsurface variation.
The use of a diagonal bar or fractional symbol does not determine a unique soil type, so the attributes of the soil label points were attributed as shown in Entity and Attribute Information.
Each county was surveyed and mapped separately, so all label points were grouped by county into an ESRI personal geodatabase in Microsoft Access format. Each geodatabase consisted of two parts:
SOIL_LABELS: this is a point feature class that contains all the label points for the county, with attributes as described previously.
SOIL_LABELS_PDF_PGNUM: this is a table that is used to link the soil label attribute to the corresponding page number in the PDF soil survey booklet.
To help reduce label errors, each county geodatabase also contains three domain names with coded values for label_type, soil_label, and drainage. The coded values in the domain names were used to provide a unique set of values for each county that can be used a pull-down list when the label points were being assigned attributes.

Each county feature class was augmented by joining the table for soil report page links. The WebURL field was calculated to point to the correct directory location for the relevant report and page.

County feature classes were appended into a statewide file geodatabase feature class and metadata were written, drawing on information in the PDF digital project description document, and table metadata provided by Rutgers CRSSA.

All areas of the state are included.
The methodology for all of the counties was the same, but the quality of georeferencing varied from one map to another. See the project report for details, at
