The potential of using spectroscopy for the quantification of soil attributes through its spectral signature is widely documented in the literature. However, a protocol to support formal soil classification systems combining spectral data has not been established. This research proposed a protocol for soil profile classification by combining spectral data from the near visible, shortwave infrared (Vis-NIR-SWIR) and mid infrared (MIR). For this purpose, we used 15 soil profiles located in the Pernambuco State, Brazil. A quantitative analysis between soil attributes and spectral curves was performed for the selection of bands with the best correlations (method 1). In addition, the recursive feature elimination (RFE) function was used for the selection of discriminant bands between soil profiles (method 2). The results of this research indicated that the combined use of spectra is efficient to successfully grouping Ferralsol, Gleysol, and Acrisol. The integrated use of sensors, pedometric techniques, and the expertise of soil scientists can lead to an advanced understanding of soil science.
