The main objectives of this study are to map and evaluate the soil resources of Sohag Governorate, Egypt. A physiographic analysis using visual interpretation of false color composite (FCC) of Landsat ETM images was carried out to delineate the different landforms of the studied area which accurately defined by the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) which generated from the Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM). The results indicated that five landforms in the studied area i.e. Nile Alluvium, Low recent river terraces, High recent river terraces, Outwash plains and Wadis. Also, the soils were classified as Aridisols (TypicHaplocalcids), Entisols (TypicTorriorthents, TypicTorripsamment, TypicTorrifluvents and VerticTorrifluvent) and verisols(TypicHaplotorrerts). The physical and chemical soil properties were linked with the different landforms of the studied area. In addition, the thematic layers of these data were generated using GIS. Consequently, these layers were overlaid to assess the soil capability. In the current Era of distinctive progress in information technology, such data can be handled, enhanced and exchanged by different users and authorities.
