Agricultural Land Map

Is there a national or Illinois State map or GIS that shows the quality and type of soil ? Anything that can be imported in Google Earth?

I am interested in Kane, Will and Kankakee Counties.

Thank you.

Published Soil Surveys for IL can be accessed at http://soils.usda.gov/survey/printed_surveys/state.asp?abbr=IL&state=Illinois

This is from the NRCS website. There is information for all 3 of the counties you mentioned, however, this may not be in the version you are looking for. I'm sure a visit to an NRCS office in any of these counties can result in access to the information you are looking for.

If you have difficulties locating offices or accessing this information please contact me and I will try to assist.
