Southeastern Regional Topsoil Moisture Map for May 22, 2025 

The Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) soil moisture anomaly (SMA) map measures the deviation of the soil moisture value from the historical average soil moisture value for the day or the week in percentile. It provides measurements of soil moisture in the topsoil represented by pixels. Each pixel represents 9 by 9 kilometer plot or about 20,000 acres. More information and additional mapping is available on Crop-CASMA at https:/nassgeo.csiss.gmu.edu/CropCASMA/.

		1The formula for the condition index is I = (110E + 90G + 60F + 25P + 5V)/100 where I = crop condition index and E, G, F, P, V = percentage of crop       rated excellent, good, fair, poor, very poor.
