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.

This dataset is the structural measurements data for New Zealand. The dataset is a product of the QMAP Geological Map of New Zealand Project and was produced by GNS Science. It represents the most current collection of structure data for 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. The dataset comprises points with each point having attributes describing the type of structure, its dip and dip direction.

This dataset represents the topographic boundaries compiled from several LINZ Topomap datasets obtained under a Creative Commons licence and developed to complement the geological data. The dataset is part of the Geology of the Napier-Hastings urban area collection produced by GNS Science. The dataset is associated with Lee JM, Begg JG, Bland KJ 2020. Geological map of the Napier-Hastings urban area 1:75 000. GNS Science geological map 7a. Lower Hutt, New Zealand. GNS Science.

This dataset represents the formlines present at or near the surface and comprises arcs depicting generalised structure of basement rocks. The dataset is part of the Geological Map of New Zealand collection produced by GNS Science. The mapping frame within which the features have been observed is defined as bedrock (i.e the solid rock that may either be exposed at the topographic surface or covered by other unconsolidated deposits). The data structure complies with the GeoSciML 4.1 standard, where relevant, and uses the appropriate CGI Controlled Vocabularies. The dataset is associated with Heron, D.W. (custodian) 2020: Geological Map of New Zealand 1:250 000. GNS Science Geological Map 1 (3rd ed.). Lower Hutt, New Zealand. GNS Science. DOI: https://doi.org/10.21420/03PC-H178.

This dataset represents the labels associated with the geological units and comprises annotation which stores the text code developed for use on the map face. The dataset is part of the Geology of the Napier-Hastings urban area collection produced by GNS Science. The dataset is associated with Lee JM, Begg JG, Bland KJ 2020.

It represents the most current mapping of formlines for 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. The dataset comprises arcs with each arc having an attribute describing the accuracy of location. The data structure complies with the GeoSciML 4.1 standard where relevant and uses the appropriate CGI Controlled Vocabularies. The mapping frame is defined as 'top of basement'. The dataset is available for purchase as feature classes in ESRI file geodatabase and shapefile GIS formats.

This dataset is annotation associated eith the folds data for New Zealand. The dataset is a product of the QMAP Geological Map of New Zealand Project and was produced by GNS Science. The dataset is stored in an ESRI vector geodatabase and exported to ArcGIS Server.

This dataset represents the landslide boundaries present at or near the surface and comprises arcs with attributes describing the type of contact and its accuracy. The dataset is part of the Geology of the Tongariro National Park area collection produced by GNS Science. It is stored in an ESRI vector geodatabase and exported to a shapefile. The mapping frame within which the features have been observed is defined as surface geology (i.e. the bedrock and superficial deposits that are exposed at the topographic surface or would be visible if the overlying soil was removed). The data structure complies with the GeoSciML 4.1 standard, where relevant, and uses the appropriate CGI Controlled Vocabularies. The dataset is associated with Townsend DB, Leonard GS, Pure LR, Conway CE, Eaves SR, Wilson CJN (compilers) 2020. Geology of the Tongariro National Park area 1:60 000. GNS Science geological map 4. Digital vector data (2nd ed.). Lower Hutt, New Zealand. GNS Science.

Annotation in this layer contains age information for point features in NZL_GNS_GM5_geochronology_50k. The data layer is part of the 'Geology of the Middlemarch area' 1:50 000 dataset covering a part of of East Otago around Middlemarch township.

This dataset is the 1:250 000 geological units data for southern Victoria Land, Antarctica between 76°40' S and 78°45' S. The dataset is a product of the QMAP 1: 250 000 mapping project and was produced by GNS Science. It represents a synthesis of the current and historical mapping of the geology of this area 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. The dataset comprises polygons with each polygon having attributes describing the type of geological unit, its content, name and age. It complies with the GeoSciML Portrayal standard for GeologicUnitView. The outcrop surface (map horizon) on which the features are mapped is the Earth surface. The fields required by the GeoSciML Portrayal standard were populated using the CGI Controlled Vocabulary (2012-11).
