תקציר	Digital Soil Mapping (DSM) is a quantitative, data-driven pipeline that predicts the spatial distribution of soil properties and classes across a landscape by statistically linking field observations to environmental covariates — terrain attributes, remote sensing imagery, climate surfaces, and geology layers. The approach replaces or augments traditional expert-drawn soil surveys with reproducible, spatially explicit models, and is applied in agronomy, land management, food security, and environmental assessment.	Pedogenesis modeling is a quantitative method used in agronomy and soil science to simulate the processes by which soils form and evolve over time. Rooted in Hans Jenny's 1941 factorial framework — soil as a function of climate, organisms, relief, parent material, and time — modern approaches translate these conceptual drivers into coupled numerical process equations, allowing researchers to reconstruct past soil states and project future soil properties under changing land use or climate scenarios.
