It's been a long journey since 2021 and I'm happy to finally have this foundational paper out, as more exciting work is to come!

The OSSL is a comprehensive and curated database of soil spectra from diverse sources and regions. This enabled the development of reproducible soil spectral calibration models and user-friendly web applications.

Its adoption, however, is often restricted within the research domain and limited by the availability (i.e., open) of data and predictive models.

This paper presents the Open Soil Spectral Library (OSSL) and other open resources built as part of the Soil Spectroscopy for Global Good initiative.
