One of the main problems facing Russian soil scientists is the creation of a scientific and technical basis for a state strategy for rational land use.
The soil–geographical database of Russia is able to become a state tool for regulating the use and protection of soils and land resources, solving the national tasks of inventorying and formalizing soil data, contributing to regulation of land management and soil protection policies, participating in monitoring the condition of soil cover and land resources evaluation.
