Explaining the vector limit
We are receiving an increasing number of large legalisation and fee simple subdivision datasets that are pushing, or in some instances exceeding, the limits Landonline was designed for.
To provide certainty to you and your clients that there won’t be problems when preparing, lodging and processing the cadastral survey dataset (CSD) we are introducing a vector limit.
Vector limit in Landonline
The maximum number of vectors in a CSD must not exceed 3250.
This limit has been set by analysing lodgements over the last 5 years to understand which components of a CSD have the biggest impact on the Landonline system.
There have been just 2 CSDs in the last 5 years that have exceeded 3250 vectors, so we don’t expect this system constraint will impact many surveys.
How to check the number of vectors in your survey in Landonline
You can check the number of vectors in your survey in Landonline in the Vectors panel.
- Open the Vectors panel.
- Select all vectors by ticking the select all checkbox at the top left of the panel.
- The total number of vectors will show at the bottom left of the panel.
What to do if your survey may exceed the vector limit
If you are preparing a complex or large CSD that may exceed 3250 vectors, then you should consider staging or chunking your survey into smaller CSDs.
If you want to discuss the matter with Toitū Te Whenua LINZ, please create a Survey Information Complex request in the Requests application.
