At present, one of the main worldwide problems is the fact related to soil classification and its correlation with the others currently existing, in order to create a universal language, which is a very important aspect on soil preservation and management. Our country is not free from it, since there are serious problems when our soils are characterized and mainly classified, mostly in agriculture. Having in mind what was said above and based on a study through establishing a reference sector and the combined application of a geographical information system, they proceeded to determine soil characterization, classification and distribution in “La Rosita” farm, located at the East of Havana City, as well as soil surface (ha) and the percentage occupied inside the estate. A soil map was devised, where soils were classified until species level, resulting that the main groups present were: Cambisols, Vertisols and Phaeozems.

Palabras clave : soils; classification; soil map.
