Original Issue - https://code.google.com/p/alageospatialportal/issues/detail?id=994

Project Member Reported by chris.fl...@gmail.com, May 29, 2012 Need to source a gridded version of this dataset - the only copy I can find of the raw data consists of extremely large shape files.

The layer then needs to be re-loaded using the GridClassBuilder

Jun 18, 2012 Project Member #1 leebel...@gmail.com Emailed Leo Lymburner to see if he can get a copy in grid format. Labels: -Priority-Medium Priority-High Jun 6, 2013 Project Member #2 chris.fl...@gmail.com Hi Lee,

This one has fallen through the cracks - did you ever hear back about it? We had also discussed this with Kristen. Is it still a high priority?

Cheers, Chris Cc: -adam_col...@tpg.com.au moyesyside Jun 6, 2013 Project Member #3 leebel...@gmail.com I've emailed Leo again about this. If no response, I'll ask Kristen as I know she will have this as a soil surrogate, but format - who knows. Jul 8, 2013 Project Member #4 leebel...@gmail.com Kristen Williams has these data and could supply a 250m gridded version. Please pursue, via Miles?

NOTE: The reason the gridded data is needed is for processing for Tabulation and I suspect, Add to Map | Areas | Gazetteer polygon.

Remains a high priority as the layer is available to map but not to use in analyses. Inconsistent. Handed to Chris. Owner: chris.fl...@gmail.com Cc: -chris.fl...@gmail.com leebel...@gmail.com

If we can handle it, we would always opt for the better resolution these days. 1: 1 million. That is pretty coarse anyway.
