Estimating agricultural soil erosion losses from census of agriculture crop coverage data / by Douglas F. Trant.: CS11-0019/27E-PDF
"This paper deals with the technical aspects of quantifying soil erosion on farms in Canada. Statistics Canada crop coverage information is overlaid with physiographic data from Agriculture Canada, in a large scale soil erosion model, using the ARC/INFO Geographic Information System. This combination of data sources and technology, make the implementation of long term soil erosion monitoring a realistic objective before the year 2000."--Abstract.
