NZ Parcel Boundaries Wireframe provides a map of land, road and other parcel boundaries, and is especially useful for displaying property boundaries.
This map service is for visualisation purposes only and is not intended for download. You can download the full parcels data from the NZ Parcels dataset.
This map service provides a dark outline and transparent fill, making it perfect for overlaying on our basemaps or any map service you choose.
Data for this map service is sourced from the NZ Parcels dataset which is updated weekly with authoritative data direct from LINZ’s Survey and Title system. Refer to the NZ Parcel layer for detailed metadata.
To simplify the visualisation of this data, the map service filters the data from the NZ Parcels layer to display parcels with a status of 'current' only.
This map service has been designed to be integrated into GIS, web and mobile applications via LINZ’s WMTS and XYZ tile services. View the Services tab to access these services.
See the LINZ website for service specifications and help using WMTS and XYZ tile services and more information about this service.

This layer provides the latest bearing (direction) and/or distance for cadastral boundaries.

When a cadastral survey is undertaken the relationship between boundary and non-boundary marks is ascertained or measured. • This commonly is in the form or a vector (bearing and distance), but occasionally just one component. • Some relationships are defined as arcs. In this data layer, the arc length is recorded in the distance field and a separate record holds the chord.

Only observations that have been captured in Landonline are available. This includes vectors that were re-captured in the Survey Capture Areas from survey plans lodged prior to Landonline and all survey observations since.

This dataset provides title information (excluding ownership) where there is a relationship to one or more primary parcels.

A Record of Title is a record of a property's owners, legal description and the rights and responsibilities registered against the title.This dataset does not contain any ownership information so that it can be freely distributed. If ownership information is required, you need to apply for access.

There can be multiple parcels associated with a title, and a title may only have a part share in a parcel. This means the shape representing the title will be an aggregation of all parcels that the title is associated with. The ‘spatial extents shared’ attribute when equal to ‘false’ will indicate that title has exclusive interest over all of the shape (this will be case for the vast majority).

The originating data for parcel/title associations includes some non-official sources where the official data does not support a link. For more information see the LINZ website

This dataset is the definitive set of annually released territorial authority boundaries for 2020 as defined the territorial authorities and/or Local Government Commission and maintained by Stats NZ (the custodian). This version contains 68 categories.

A territorial authority is defined under the Local Government Act 2002 as a city or a district council. There are 67 territorial authorities in New Zealand. Some territorial authority boundaries are coterminous with regional council boundaries but there are several exceptions. An example is Taupo District, which is split between four regions, although most of its area falls within the Waikato Region. Territorial authorities are defined at meshblock, statistical area 1 (SA1) and statistical area 2 (SA2) levels.

Names are provided with and without tohutō/macrons. The name field without macrons is suffixed ‘ascii’.

This generalised version has been simplified for rapid drawing and is designed for thematic or web mapping purposes.

Digital boundary data became freely available on 1 July 2007.

Merge of Department of Statistics Meshblock Level 1 boundaries and Topo Coastline, plus Chatham Islands to give a better map of the land area for each Territorial Local Authority (TLA). Unitary Authorities are also clipped for their TLA role. TLA boundaries are MHWS which is not mapped in the Cadastral database and is only approximate using the 1:50,000 coastline and island borders, but it is better than the generalised meshblocks. Reloaded to fix topology error that merged Kapiti and Porirua.

NZ Property Boundaries provides the best available representation of property boundaries in New Zealand.

Three data sources have been combined to create this property boundaries layer:

• Rating Units - These are the main data source, taken from the NZ Properties: Unit of Property layer. This layer uses District Valuation Roll data to identify rateable properties and aggregates all spatialised titles associated with a Rating Unit into a single property.
• Titles - Where there are no spatialised rating units, spatialised titles from the NZ Property Titles layer are included, if they are available.
• Parcels – Where there are no rating units or spatialised titles, parcels from the NZ Primary Parcels layer are used to fill the in the remaining gaps.

NZ Property Boundaries is updated on a weekly basis. For more information please refer to the NZ Property Boundaries Data Dictionary

Please note: NZ Property Boundaries is an interim solution while work continues to develop the NZ Properties: Unit of Property layer. For more information about NZ Properties: Unit of Property, please see the New Zealand Property Spine on the Toitū Te Whenua LINZ website.

This layer provides the latest captured boundary mark information that defines existing parcel boundaries and associated information such as the mark name.

A boundary mark is on a node which defines the boundaries of primary parcels or non primary parcels.

Not all boundary points have a physical monument (e.g. a peg) placed. In this case the boundary mark is recorded as “unmarked”

This dataset extends the Landonline stored data by including the network accuracy which is based upon its assigned Landonline order - refer LINZS25006 (http://www.linz.govt.nz/about-linz/news-publications-and-consultations/search-for-regulatory-documents/DocumentSummary.aspx?document=256 ).

The accuracy provided relates to the accuracy of coordinates of the mark and has little relevance to the accuracy of the boundary in relation to other boundaries. For example, if the coordinates of the mark were used to locate it, a user would expect to find the existing mark within the nominal accuracy (distance) stated.

A map book shows the regional council and the local council council boundaries in the Bay of Plenty.

New Zealand TerritorialAuthority Boundaries provides a 2021 boundary with a total population count. The layer is designed to be used for mapping and analysis. It can be enriched with additional attributes using data enrichment tools in ArcGIS Online.The 2021 boundaries are provided by Michael Bauer Research GmbH. They are sourced from Statistics New Zealand, www.stats.govt.nz. These were published in October 2022. A new layer will be published in 18 months.

This dataset is the definitive version of the annually released regional council boundaries for 2020 as defined by the regional councils and/or Local Government Commission, and maintained by Stats NZ (the custodian). This version contains 17 categories.

The regional council is the top tier of local government in New Zealand. There are 16 regional councils in New Zealand (defined by Part 1 of Schedule 2 of the Local Government Act 2002). Eleven are governed by an elected regional council, while five are governed by territorial authorities (the second tier of local government), who also perform the functions of a regional council and are known as unitary authorities.

Auckland Council unitary authority was formed in 2010, under the Local Government (Tamaki Makarau Reorganisation) Act 2009, replacing the Auckland Regional Council and seven territorial authorities.The seaward boundary of any coastal regional council is the twelve-mile New Zealand territorial limit. Regional councils are defined at meshblock and statistical area 2

Topicality: 01-01-2025Projection: New Zealand Transverse Mercator (NZTM)This layer contains the archive of the meshblock boundaries maintained by Stats NZ as defined by Stats NZ. Stats NZ maintains an annual meshblock pattern for collecting and producing statistical data. This allows data to be compared over time. A meshblock is the smallest geographic unit for which statistical data is collected and processed by Stats NZ. A meshblock is defined by a geographic area, which can vary in size from part of a city block to a large area of rural land.This layer get updated yearly with the latest boundary data. You can use this layer when you need any year of boundary data in your map. By setting a filter on the dataset year you can filter on specific year of the dataset.For information about the fields in this dataset go to the Data tab.The layer is further generalised by Eagle Technology for improved performance on the web, therefore it doesn't fully represent the official boundaries.If you only need the latest boundary data in your map you can use the current version of this dataset.

New Zealand Police administrative boundaries go out to the 12NM limit and are made up of 12 Police Districts which are divided into Areas. Each Police Area is divided into several scene Stations. Police Scene Station boundaries are used to record events, and against which statistics are gathered.

Police boundaries are based on the 2018 Census generalised meshblock pattern.

NOTE: Chatham Islands Station is not included in this dataset, but is part of Wellington District and Wellington Area.

Available formats: ESRI shape file (.shp) to 12Nm limit.

Include Bay of Plenty Regional Council Boundary.

The Tairahwiti Resource Management Plan sets out noise limits for port noise that apply to both ‘essential’ and ‘non-essential’ port activities. The rules regime sets out ‘long term’ and ‘short term’ noise emission limits that apply within the receiving environment around the port. Many of the activities envisaged in the Port Management Zones are of an industrial nature and while the operation of the Port should not be retarded satisfactory controls need to be in place to ensure that there is suitable screening between sensitive activities. Noise from Port operations has the potential to impact on adjoining residential areas with the consequent loss of amenity or in extreme cases potential adverse health effects
