About the Postcode Network File:The Postcode Network File is the authoritative definition of the New Zealand Post Postcode Network. It includes approximately 1800 postcodes incorporating:• Urban delivery postcodes• PO Box and Private Bag postcodes• Rural Delivery (RD) postcodesThis is version V2021Q2V01in NZTM (New Zealand Transverse Mercator) ProjectionNote: There are a number of additional locations used for counter delivery or Community Mail Box delivery that are not included in the Postcode Network File. This is because these locations are not official New Zealand Post Box Lobbies. A listing of these is available at www.nzpost.co.nz/postcodefinderThe primary purpose of postcodes is to assist in the efficient and accurate delivery of mail. Used in New Zealand since 1977, this major revision of postcodes is designed to provide a unique delivery address for all postal addresses on the New Zealand Post network. The postcode boundaries take into consideration New Zealand Post mail sorting requirements, the density of delivery addresses and the proximity of identical or similar street names. Please note that postcode boundaries do not necessarily reflect suburb boundaries. Urban and rural postal delivery postcodes are represented by a single-part or multi-part geographic area while postcodes associated with Box/Bag delivery are represented by a single point location (PO Box lobby). In rural areas the Rural delivery identifier (RD number) and New Zealand Post Mailtown is included and for Box/Bag lobbies the lobby name is listed.The Postcode Network File is designed to enable businesses and policy-makers to integrate postcodes within Geographic Information Systems (GIS) applications to assist in planning, modelling, business intelligence and decision making. The data can be represented in two dimensions (mapped) or modelled against other data such as physical addresses, city or town boundaries, census meshblocks and land valuation areas. Although the Postcode Network File includes full national coverage, it should be noted that not all physical addresses contained within a postcode boundary receive mail delivery from New Zealand Post.
