Description
Hydrologic soil groups are based on estimates of runoff potential. Soils areassigned to one of four groups according to the rate of water infiltration when thesoils are not protected by vegetation, are thoroughly wet, and receive precipitationfrom long-duration storms.
The soils in the United States are assigned to four groups (A, B, C, and D) andthree dual classes (A/D, B/D, and C/D). The groups are defined as follows:
Group A. Soils having a high infiltration rate (low runoff potential) when thoroughlywet. These consist mainly of deep, well drained to excessively drained sands orgravelly sands. These soils have a high rate of water transmission.
Group B. Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. Theseconsist chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well drainedsoils that have moderately fine texture to moderately coarse texture. These soilshave a moderate rate of water transmission.
Group C. Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consistchiefly of soils having a layer that impedes the downward movement of water orsoils of moderately fine texture or fine texture. These soils have a slow rate of watertransmission.
Group D. Soils having a very slow infiltration rate (high runoff potential) whenthoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink-swellpotential, soils that have a high water table, soils that have a claypan or clay layerat or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious material.These soils have a very slow rate of water transmission.
If a soil is assigned to a dual hydrologic group (A/D, B/D, or C/D), the first letter isfor drained areas and the second is for undrained areas. Only the soils that in theirnatural condition are in group D are assigned to dual classes.

Aggregation Method: Dominant Condition
Aggregation is the process by which a set of component attribute values is reducedto a single value that represents the map unit as a whole.
A map unit is typically composed of one or more "components". A component iseither some type of soil or some nonsoil entity, e.g., rock outcrop. For the attributebeing aggregated, the first step of the aggregation process is to derive one attributevalue for each of a map unit's components. From this set of component attributes,the next step of the aggregation process derives a single value that represents themap unit as a whole. Once a single value for each map unit is derived, a thematicmap for soil map units can be rendered. Aggregation must be done because, onany soil map, map units are delineated but components are not.
For each of a map unit's components, a corresponding percent composition isrecorded. A percent composition of 60 indicates that the corresponding componenttypically makes up approximately 60% of the map unit. Percent composition is acritical factor in some, but not all, aggregation methods.
The aggregation method "Dominant Condition" first groups like attribute values forthe components in a map unit. For each group, percent composition is set to thesum of the percent composition of all components participating in that group. Thesegroups now represent "conditions" rather than components. The attribute valueassociated with the group with the highest cumulative percent composition isreturned. If more than one group shares the highest cumulative percentcomposition, the corresponding "tie-break" rule determines which value should bereturned. The "tie-break" rule indicates whether the lower or higher group valueshould be returned in the case of a percent composition tie.
The result returned by this aggregation method represents the dominant conditionthroughout the map unit only when no tie has occurred.
Component Percent Cutoff: None Specified
Components whose percent composition is below the cutoff value will not beconsidered. If no cutoff value is specified, all components in the database will beconsidered. The data for some contrasting soils of minor extent may not be in thedatabase, and therefore are not considered.
Tie-break Rule: Lower
The tie-break rule indicates which value should be selected from a set of multiplecandidate values, or which value should be selected in the event of a percentcomposition tie.
