Warkworth Observatory Local Tie Survey - 2019
The purpose of the survey was to determine the relationship between the permanent GNSS CORS site (WARK 50243M001), the invariant reference points (IVP) of the 12 metre (7377 50243S001) and 30 metre (7391 50243S002), radio telescopes capable of Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations.

Local mean sea level datums (LVDs)
Many heights around New Zealand have been referenced to a local sea level, or local vertical datum (LVD). In the past this was the most practical method of determining a height reference point, but more robust height references are now available to replace these.

Darfield Earthquake Geodetic Investigations
The 4 September 2010 Darfield (Canterbury) earthquake resulted in up to 5 metres of lateral slip along the previously unknown Greendale Fault (Figure 1) and associated ground surface displacements of up to about 2.5 metres within the surrounding region (Quigley et al., 2010, 2012; Beavan et al., 2010). Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) requires a way to correct and update the survey system for the effects of the earthquake.
