We have announced our intention to move towards 100% electronic lodgement of titles and survey plans, a move consistent with the development of Landonline as our primary service mechanism.

The purpose of this Strategic Business Plan is to articulate a vision and plan for the development of the geodetic system.

The New Zealand Map Grid (NZMG) is a projection that is used to convert latitudes and longitudes to easting and northing coordinates used for most mapping of New Zealand. The projection is unique to New Zealand.

The Surveyor-General had a milestone (2j) to ‘investigate options for automated processing to monitor data from the GPS continuous tracking network by 31 March 2003’. This report addresses this milestone and considers future enhancements to the PositioNZ network, in particular the various options for automated and real time processing of GPS data from the network, and makes recommendations for future development.

This specification was developed for use by contracting organisations when providing geodetic maintenance services for Toitū Te Whenua.

The New Zealand Positioning Strategy sets the strategic direction for how the geodetic system will be developed within the broader positioning fundamental data theme for the next 10 years (2014-2024). This strategy builds on previous geodetic strategies and aligns with LINZ’s 10 year vision that ‘the power of where’ drives New Zealand’s success.

This report reviews the relative merits of retaining the NZMG or of changing to another projection.

This paper describes the effects of the earthquakes on cadastral boundaries in the region. It then discusses the steps that are being taken to provide certainty in cadastral boundary reestablishment by surveyors.

This hydrographic risk assessment allows the Tongan Government, with the support of regional charting authorities, to come to a conclusion about the nature and scope of chart improvement surveys in Tonga. It provides recommendations and conclusions to assist decision makers to prioritise hydrographic surveys in Tonga. These are based on the needs of contemporary shipping for the provision of accurate and adequate nautical charts.

This hydrographic risk assessment allows the Cook Islands Government, with the support of regional charting authorities, to come to a decision about the nature and scope of chart improvement surveys in the Cook Islands. It provides recommendations and conclusions to assist decision makers to prioritise hydrographic surveys throughout the Northern and Southern Cook Islands. These are based on the needs of contemporary shipping for the provision of accurate and adequate nautical charts.

This was the official geodetic datum for New Zealand until 1998. Like most datums of its era it was defined using astronomical observations to establish the coordinates of a relatively small number of fiducial stations. Triangulation was then used to connect these stations together.
