Significant natural area (SNA) data from operative District Plan (2016) - Rotorua Lakes Council. SNA have significant indigenous vegetation or habitat and may or may not already be formally protected. Significant Natural Areas post Plan Change 3As at February 2021 - This is the dataset used for the Operative District Plan

A high definition PDF map of the Rotorua Lakes. Includes major roads, place names. Suitable to print to A1 size.

Stream data - Rotorua Lakes CouncilStreams digitised from 2016 aerial photography. (For cartographic purposes only - not to be used for networking.)

Zone data from operative District Plan (2016) - Rotorua Lakes Council.Water 1 includes streams wider than 3m. Lakes include the following Te Arawa settlement - Lakes Rotoehu, Rotoma, Rotoiti, Rotorua, Okataina, Okareka, Rerewhakaaitu, Tarawera, Rotomahana, Tikitapu, Ngahewa, Tutaeinanga, Ngapouri and Okaro. In addition Onewhero Lagoon, The Crater, Whakarewarewa Lagoon, Lake Rotokawau, Lake Rotokawa. Any Lakes which were zoned rural in Black Plan remain rural even if they are over 8 ha for example Mamaku Lagoon. Hard Castle and Rawhiti Lagoons are excluded because they are covered by a SNA.Water 1 boundaries are the physical boundaries and were captured from February 2001 imagery at +/- 2m.

Collector Features

This landslide susceptibility mapping study is a requirement of the Bay of Plenty Regional Policy Statement. The methodology of the study is generally based on the “basic” level assessment described in the Australian Geomechanics Society Guideline for Landslide Susceptibility, Hazard and Risk Zoning (AGS, 2007a).The study area consists of the Bay of Plenty regional boundary, excluding the Tauranga City district and five other areas where landslide susceptibility studies have previously been carried out or are currently being undertaken. It also includes the part of the Rotorua Lakes District that lies within the Waikato region. The geology, geomorphology and characteristic mechanisms of landsliding across the study area are described, based on the results of a literature review of available information. Factors that influence slope stability are identified from the results of the literature review, including correlation to an inventory of previous landslides. Assessment of the landslide susceptibility is based on weighting of the influencing factors and combining these in Geographical Information System (GIS) platform using available geospatial datasets. Four categories of landslide susceptibility are described, from Very Low to High, and these are mapped across the region in GIS showing the spatial distribution and extent of the different susceptibility categories. The maps do not present potential areas of regression and runout of landslide debris, which have not been assessed at this stage. The region was mapped at a 1:50,000 scale, except for urban areas identified by BOPRC, which were mapped at 1:25,000. The maps should be used at appropriate scales suggested, and were made available to the public through the Council natural hazards GIS viewer, the scale should be restricted to 1:25,000 for the 12 identified Urban Areas, and 1:50,000 for the remainder of the region.
