Abstract :In this study, soil depths, degrees of erosion and other soil properties in Nevşehir province were evaluated spatially. For this purpose, 1/25.000 scale digital soil maps were used. Digital soil maps were analyzed spatially using Arc GIS 10.3.1 software from Geography Information Systems (GIS) program. As a result of the research, % 53.6 of Nevşehir province is shallow (50-90 cm) soils, % 26.28 of it is very shallow (20-50 cm) soils. % 57.01 of the soils that can be exposed to moderate erosion and % 23.25 of it is stony soils. It is thought that the results obtained in the research will make significant contributions to the farmers and local governments operating in the region.Keywords : Soil Depth, Land Properties, Erosion, Spatial Analysis, GIS, Nevsehir, Türkiye
