Load Layer: Atlas of Australian Soils #750

This layer fills a significant gap in the substrate arena in the ALA and will 
address a number of recent user requests.

Hi Lee,
This contextual layers has names like CA43, FU28 etc. This does not make much 
sense to me. I suppose the same problem will be faced by people who are not 
soil experts. Dereferencing it to something more meaningful is not possible 
since the explanatory text run to many characters. What is the best way 
forward. Please find the attached file to see what I mean.

The notes don't align with the attached map on ASRIS called "Australian Soil 
Classification" (see attached) where there are 15 classes. 

I have however found a file (attached) on the ASRIS site that provides a lookup 
table from the Principal Profile Form (PPF) to the classification class and 
there is even a colour table for the classification classes. Hopefully this 
will work?
