APP is synthesising the wealth of new and existing information and knowledge within GNS Science and other open-file sources, to produce a nationally-significant baseline reference dataset that summarises the current understanding of the petroleum prospectivity of New Zealand's offshore sedimentary basins. Polygon, point, and polyline features are organised thematically into Feature Datasets, each of which contains multiple Feature Classes. Raster datasets are included at the highest hierarchical level of the database. The co-ordinate system used for the database is New Zealand Transverse Mercator, based on the NZGD2000 datum. Database compilation was undertaken using ArcGIS 10.3.1 for Desktop (version 10.3.1.4959). The atlas is subdivided into a number of provinces, each with common geological setting.

This dataset contains geospatial datasets for sedimentary basins in the Northwest Province (Taranaki, Deepwater Taranaki, and Reinga-Northland basins), produced and compiled as part of GNS Science's "Atlas of Petroleum Prospectivity" programme (APP).
