How to extract soil data from HWSD using arcgis?

I need to get soil data from Harmonized World Soils Database (HWSD) to 1000 points. I was successful in connecting the Microsoft Access database provided by HWSD to ArcGIS Desktop 10.1 using Build Raster Attribute Table tool.

But when I use the tool Extract Values to Points in order to obtain the variables data, only values of MU_Global are extracted.

Is there a way to get an attribute table with all the variables for each of my points?

You still want to use Extract Values to Points, but make sure you properly set the add_attributes parameter.

Determines if the raster attributes are written to the output point feature dataset.

  • VALUE_ONLY — Only the value of the input raster is added to the point attributes. This is the default.
  • ALL — All the fields from the input raster (except Count) will be added to the point attributes.
