Topo250 is the official small scale topographic map series used by New Zealand emergency services.


When using Topo250 data, please be aware of the following:


1. Representation of a road or track does not necessarily indicate public right of access. For access rights, maps and other information, contact the Outdoor Access Commission - https://www.herengaanuku.govt.nz/


2. The Department of Conservation Te Papa Atawhai and other agencies should be contacted for the latest information on tracks and back country huts. Closed tracks are defined as being no longer maintained or passable and should not be used.


3. Not all aerial wires, cableways and obstructions that could be hazardous to aircraft are held in the data.


4. Contours and spot elevations in forest and snow areas may be less accurate.


5. Not all pipelines including both underground and above ground are held in the data or shown on the printed maps. For the latest information please contact the utility and infrastructure agencies.


6. Permits may be required to visit some sensitive and special islands and areas. Contact the Department of Conservation to see if you need to apply for a permit.

Resource lineage

Statement

LINZ and our predecessors have been responsible for national topographic mapping in New Zealand for more than a hundred years.


The first digital data at 1:250,000 scale was created in the late 80's by scanning the 1:250,000 maps that existed at the time (known as the NZMS 262 series, which replaced the earlier NZMS 18 series)


The NZMS 262 series were generalised from the NZMS 260 series.


The Topo250 map series are compiled from a mix of information from the NZMS 262 series, and that from the Topo50.


LINZ releases regular updates of the Topo250 maps and data. Details are posted at https://www.linz.govt.nz/products-services/maps/new-zealand-topographic-maps/topo250-map-chooser/release-notes-update-history
