This index enables you to identify digital bathymetric surface models created by LINZ using third party data. This data provides a 3-dimensional model of the surface of the seafloor. These surface models have been created by LINZ from third party single- or multi-beam data collected in the New Zealand coastal area since 2009. The polygons in the index show the extent of these gridded data models, and include descriptive information, such as the age and quality of the data. The gridded surface models are not downloadable from the LINZ Data Service, but can be requested. Please refer to the LINZ Bathymetric Index Data Dictionary for further information about the attributes of this dataset, and formats in which the data is available. How to order the data: Requests for the models should be sent to hydro@linz.govt.nz with “Hydro Bathy Data” in the subject line. Requests must, as a minimum, specify the id and surf_name of the models of interest and the data format (see the options in Section 1.4 of the Bathymetric Data Dictionary). It may take a few days to get the surface models generated from third party funded bathymetric data to you, as we need to confirm with the data owner that they are happy for their data to be released. The owner may attach conditions to the release of their data. LINZ also holds publically funded bathymetric data for the New Zealand coastal area, which can be readily released under a Creative Commons licence for reuse.

This index enables you to identify freely available digital bathymetric surface models covering the South West Pacific owned by LINZ. This data provides a 3-dimensional model of the surface of the seafloor. These surface models have been created by LINZ from single- or multi-beam data collected in the South West Pacific since 2005. The polygons in the index show the extent of these gridded data models, and include descriptive information, such as the age and quality of the data. The gridded surface models are not downloadable from the LINZ Data Service, but can be requested. Please refer to the LINZ Bathymetric Index Data Dictionary for further information about the attributes of this dataset, and formats in which the data is available. How to order the data: Requests for the models should be sent to hydro@linz.govt.nz with “Hydro Bathy Data” in the subject line. Requests must, as a minimum, specify the id and surf_name of the models of interest and the data format (see the options in Section 1.4 of the Bathymetric Data Dictionary). LINZ has also created 3-dimensional bathymetric surface models for the South West Pacific from data provided by third parties, which is subject to different licencing terms and conditions.

The group of houses and their sections that together make up a residential area Data Dictionary for residential_area_poly: https://docs.topo.linz.govt.nz/data-dictionary/tdd-class-residential_area_poly.html This layer is a component of the Topo50 map series. The Topo50 map series provides topographic mapping for New Zealand and it's offshore dependancies, at 1:50,000. For some small islands the printed map scale is 1:25,000.
