NZL GNS 1:250K QMAP sources (1st edition)
This dataset has been superseded by a new edition (2nd edition, 2018) available here: https://data.gns.cri.nz/metadata/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/43B63222-FCC9-4C1D-84EF-FC5FB2F4790F. This 1st edition has been kept as a historical archive and is available on request.
This dataset describes the spatial extent of the individual QMAP geological maps used in the creation of the accompanying datasets. The datasets are a product of the QMAP Geological Map of New Zealand Project and were produced by GNS Science. The datasets represents the most current mapping of the geology of New Zealand in a single dataset at a scale of 1:250 000. The dataset is stored in an ESRI vector geodatabase and exported to ArcGIS Server.

- Statement
- Process Step 1: Data compiled on 1:50 000 record sheets, simplified for use at 1:250 000 on to 1:50 000 compilation sheets, and digitised using ArcInfo. Plots of data verified by GIS operator and author against compilation sheet. Attributes verified for logical consistency by GIS operator. Process Step 2: Data combined to form a single database for each individual QMAP sheet. Process Step 3: Data passed initial verification checks and published as individual hardcopy maps. Process Step 4: Data passed final verification against data dictionary and released in digital form on CD/DVD for individual QMAP sheets. Process Step 5: Data combined into single seamless dataset for New Zealand, with limited revision of features (principally at the margins of individual QMAP sheets), expansion of attributes and standardisation of names and terms. Process Step 6: Data projected to NZTM and released as Web Map Service. Process Step 7: Data released as Web Feature Service and Digital Vector Data.
