This paper considers the economic benefits that can be expected to arise from the upgrading of Land Information New Zealand’s (LINZ) network of Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) to Real Time status and the costs of making that network available to the wider market.

This report describes the computation of NZGeoid09, a new gravimetric quasigeoid model for New Zealand, computed at the Western Australian Centre for Geodesy under contract #CON-SE-DSS-TS-45245-3 to Land Information New Zealand (LINZ).

This document describes the format used to publish the New Zealand Geodetic Datum 2000 (NZGD2000) deformation model.

New Zealand Geodetic Datum 2000 (NZGD2000) is aligned with the International Terrestrial Reference Frame 1996 (ITRF96) and referenced to epoch 2000.0. However the NZGD2000 coordinates also include the deformation due to earthquakes since 2000, which have been applied as ""reverse patches"" in the NZGD2000 deformation model.

The following document is a scanned image of the Department of Land and Survey Technical Circular 1973/32 that describes the technical details of the New Zealand Map Grid.

This guideline was developed to assist surveyors providing geodetic control survey data to Toitū Te Whenua.

The paper discusses the drivers and issues involved in the reforms of survey regulations, the risks analysed, the options considered and evaluated, the implementation of the changes, and expected outcomes.

New technology such as the Global Positioning System (GPS) is ideally suited to take advantage of a coordinate cadastre because of its ability to survey and coordinate points directly in terms of geodetic control.

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

This report details the hydrographic risk assessment of the waters around Tokelau, based on the Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) Hydrographic Risk Assessment Methodology as published in Report Number 15NZ322 Issue 031. The inability to conduct an in-country visit limited the data collection to desktop research only. Accordingly, no numerical assessment has been made and the risk observations are based on ship traffic patterns and existing charts.
