**Please read:**This dataset provides all allocated addresses as advised to LINZ by Territorial Authorities (TAs). Under the Local Government Act 1974 (section 319) it is the responsibility of the TAs to advise LINZ (the Surveyor General) of all allocated addresses in their district. See below for details. This dataset contains the core components of an address to support simple searching or use of this data to provide context.

This layer provides the **current** primary parcel polygons and some associated descriptive data that details the appellation (legal description), purpose, size and a list of titles that have an interest in the parcel. A primary parcel is a portion of land that is intended to be : • owned by the Crown, except moveable marginal strips • Held in fee simple ((predominately private ownership) • Maori freehold land or Maori customary land • Public foreshore and seabed • The bed of a lake or river • Road or Railway • Vested in a local authority --- **APIs and web services** This dataset is available via ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS REST services, as well as our standard APIs.

Other 'levels' are NZ Non-primary parcels that essentially limit the full rights that would normally be associated with a primary parcel for example easements, covenants, leases and moveable marginal strips etc. If you require approved or historic parcels see the [All Parcels Layer](https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/51571) This layer has a nominal accuracy of 0.1-1m in urban areas and 1-100m in rural areas. For more detailed information about parcel accuracies please refer to the [Survey Boundary Marks](https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50774) layer which contains accuracies for each parcel node. The combination of this layer with the non-primary parcels layer provides all current parcels for New Zealand (i.e. excludes Historic and Pending parcels) The originating data for parcel/title associations includes some non-official sources where the official data does not support a link.

This layer provides the **current** road parcel polygons with associated descriptive data. The combination of this layer with the other land parcels and hydro parcels equates to the primary parcels layer which provides all current parcels for New Zealand (i.e. excludes historic and pending parcels). This set of three parcel layers (land, hydro and road) enables easy access to the most common groupings of parcel intents (excluding the non primary parcels). If you require approved or historic parcels see the [All Parcels Layer](http://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/1571-nz-all-parcels) This layer has a nominal accuracy of 0.1-1m in urban areas and 1-100m in rural areas.

This dataset provides title information (excluding ownership) where there is a relationship to one or more primary parcels. A Record of Title is a record of a property's owners, legal description and the rights and responsibilities registered against the title. This dataset does not contain any ownership information so that it can be freely distributed. If ownership information is required, you need to first agree to the [LINZ Licence for Personal Data](https://www.linz.govt.nz/data/licensing-and-using-data/linz-licence-for-personal-data) to be able to access the [NZ Property Title Including Owners](https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50805) and [NZ Property Title Owners](https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50806) datasets. There can be multiple parcels associated with a title, and a title may only have a part share in a parcel. This means the shape representing the title will be an aggregation of all parcels that the title is associated with. The ‘spatial extents shared’ attribute when equal to ‘false’ will indicate that title has exclusive interest over all of the shape (this will be case for the vast majority). The originating data for parcel/title associations includes some non-official sources where the official data does not support a link.

The defined areas of the Quota Management Areas are based on the FMA boundary definitions (first schedule of the Fisheries Act, 1996), and are either a combination of FMA’s or correspond directly to an FMA. Legal definitions of the boundaries of the Fisheries Management Areas (FMAs) and some individual stocks are contained within the first schedule of the Fisheries Act, 1996. Remaining stock definitions were sourced from notices of Declaration of New Stocks Subject to Quota Management System. QMA boundaries were created as noted in the “Fisheries (E-logbook Users Instructions and Codes) Circular 2018” (Schedule 2, Part 1A).QMA’s are species specific and are created using different combinations of Fisheries Management areas, or in some cases specific boundaries described in legislated declarations of new stocks into the QMS. This layer has been created from a direct copy of the general FMA’s layer, with the appropriate FMA’s combined together. Legal definition of the FMA boundaries is dependent on a legally authoritative layers depicting the EEZ boundary and mean high water mark. EEZ and Topo50 Coastline datasets sourced from LINZ and released under CC-BY 4.0 were used in the creation of this dataset. All inland boundaries within this dataset have been approximated and do not reflect the intention of the Act as stated in Note 3 of Schedule 1 (all inland waters are considered a part of the FMA into which they flow directly). Most areas created from notices of Declaration of New Stocks Subject to Quota Management System state the landward boundaries follow the mean high-water springs which is not reflected in this dataset. This data has been supplied in WSG84 Mercator 41 projection. The data was last updated as of 1 October 2019.

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 V2021Q2V01Note: 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 modelledagainst 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 addressescontained within a postcode boundary receive mail delivery from New Zealand Post. Note: The Postcode Network File is the intellectual property of New Zealand Post.
