iSDAsoil API
Agriculture · Nigeria
iSDAsoil is an open-access soil data service developed by the International Soil and World Isric Data Centre for Africa, providing 30-meter resolution soil property maps across sub-Saharan Africa derived from machine learning models trained on thousands of soil samples collected across the continent. The iSDAsoil API provides programmatic access to this dataset, allowing agritech platforms, researchers, and farm advisory systems to query soil properties at any coordinates in Nigeria and across sub-Saharan Africa without requiring costly soil testing.
iSDAsoil API Highlights
iSDAsoil API is verified for developer integrations in Nigeria and across African markets, providing documented endpoints, sandbox testing, and developer support.

Different iSDAsoil API use cases
- Farm Advisory Soil Reports in Nigeria:Nigerian agritech platforms can query iSDAsoil API to generate soil property reports for specific farm coordinates, helping farmers understand their soil pH, nitrogen content, organic carbon, and texture before choosing crops or applying fertilizer.
- Crop Suitability Mapping:Agricultural extension services and precision farming platforms in Nigeria can combine iSDAsoil data with climate data to map which crops are best suited for specific areas based on actual measured soil properties.
- Fertilizer Recommendation Engines:Nigerian agritech startups building fertilizer advisory tools can use iSDAsoil data to customize fertilizer recommendations based on measured soil nutrient levels at the farm level rather than regional averages.
