AIMS: Addressable Object

The AIMS: Addressable Object data table contains an addressable object that the address is assigned to and is part of the [AIMS: Street Address](https://data.linz.govt.nz/set/4787/). The addressable object could be a parcel, building or unit. Parcel is used as the Addressable Object initially. Over time LINZ will more accurately implement the addressable object, for example using rating unit and building information. Refer to the [NZ Addresses Data Dictionary](https://data.linz.govt.nz/document/24489) for detailed metadata and information about this dataset. --- **Background** This dataset provides all allocated addresses as advised to Toitū Te Whenua LINZ by Territorial Authorities (TAs). Under the Local Government Act 1974 (section 319) it is the responsibility of the TAs to advise the Surveyor-General at Toitū Te Whenua LINZ of all allocated addresses in their district. The dataset is maintained by Toitū Te Whenua LINZ in the Address Information Management System (AIMS) which is centralised database for the management of national addresses, including for electoral purposes. This dataset is updated weekly on the LINZ Data Service. For a simplified version of the data contained within these tables see [NZ Addresses](https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/105689)
