Web Soil Survey Experience

This was not my first time using the Web Soil Survey, but I do not have a lot of previous experience with it. I find it to be a very interesting tool which could be useful in certain situations, but could be especially useful in determining productivity of a landscape. While playing with the tool I found out how many bushels of corn my neighbor could theoretically produce in a year and I mapped out the soils for The Wetlands in Richmond. Lastly, I got the site to print me a report of the soils for The Wetlands, which was well organized and very impressive. For certain professional fields, I can imagine that the printing tool could be very useful.
