Landonline BDE Resellers

Most end users will find it more convenient to purchase pre-processed BDE data from Landonline BDE Resellers. These resellers specialise in transforming the data into the formats required by the various geographic information systems, break it up into client's geographic areas and supply it on a medium suitable to the client.

Resellers have the required expertise to cope with:

  • the volume of data involved (some 30GB in total)
  • the structural complexity of the data (it requires substantive transformation before it can be directly accessed by geographic information systems)
  • separate files being supplied for each Landonline table
  • the partitioning of data into local datasets (each Landonline table contains the related data for all of New Zealand).
