On Jan 18 '23, you confirmed that Bacolor, Pampanga has a soil type of Angeles Fine Sand via this link: https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-517339172/view
My group and I are still having a difficulty in validating the proper soil type that we should indicate in our thesis.
Thus, now requesting additional information regarding:
1.) Confirmation which is the soil type description of Bacolor, Pampanga based on this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/14520ze7CYkfNdS-xNFxRWZEbp8rqMZUp/view?usp=drivesdk
Pic is based on the handbook we will be using for our thesis. I hope you can help us :)

Since the map above (https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-517339172/view) you provided online is not that visible especially on the soil profile diagram part. And we cannot determine the characteristics.
To properly conduct our thesis and produce reliable results, we need the soil type data of Bacolor from a credible source like your agency.
Thank you so much!

However, my group and I are still having a difficulty in validating the proper soil type (ABCDEF) of Angeles Fine Sand. Confused on what we should indicate in our thesis.
