LINZ Data Service
To download all geodetic mark data, use the LINZ Data Service.
The LINZ Data Service (LDS) holds geodetic mark data and a range of other data from across Toitū Te Whenua. You need to register to download data from LDS, but registration is free. All geodetic marks can be downloaded at once or you can use the crop function to trim the download area.
As an indication of size, the shapefile of the NZ Geodetic Marks layer is approximately 10MB. The other geodetic marks layers, listed below, are even smaller.
