Service Description: NZ Coastlines and Islands Polygons Topo 1:50k. Topo50 is the official topographic map series used by New Zealand emergency services. This dataset uses Mercator 41 Projection (EPSG 3994). An OGC Web Feature Service (WFS) is available as well as an Esri Hosted Feature Layer. When using Topo50 data, please be aware of the following: 1. Representation of a road or track does not necessarily indicate public right of access. For access rights, maps and other information, contact the New Zealand Walking Access Commission - www.walkingaccess.govt.nz 2. The Department of Conservation and other agencies should be contacted for the latest information on tracks and back country huts. Closed tracks are defined as being no longer maintained or passable and should not be used. 3. Not all aerial wires, cableways and obstructions that could be hazardous to aircraft are held in the data. 4. Contours and spot elevations in forest and snow areas may be less accurate. 5. Not all pipelines including both underground and above ground are held in the data or shown on the printed maps. For the latest information please contact the utility and infrastructure agencies. 6. Permits may be required to visit some sensitive and special islands and areas. Contact the Department of Conservation to see if you need to apply for a permit.

Description:

This provides a polygon coastline and islands layer which is based on the Topo50 products.

It is a combination of the following layers:

- [NZ Coastlines (Topo 1:50k)](http://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50258-nz-coastlines-topo-150k/) - [NZ Island Polygons (Topo 1:50k)](http://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50288-nz-island-polygons-topo-150k/) - [NZ Auckland Is Island Polygons (Topo, 1:50k)](http://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50959-nz-auckland-is-island-polygons-topo-150k/) - [NZ Campbell Is / Motu Ihupuku Island Polygons (Topo, 1:50k)](http://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50932-nz-campbell-is-motu-ihupuku-island-polygons-topo-150k/) - [NZ Antipodes Is Island Polygons (Topo, 1:25k)](http://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50978-nz-antipodes-is-island-polygons-topo-125k/) - [NZ Kermadec Is Island Polygons (Topo, 1:25k)](http://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50908-nz-kermadec-is-island-polygons-topo-125k/) - [NZ Bounty Is Island Polygons (Topo, 1:25k)](http://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50992-nz-bounty-is-island-polygons-topo-125k/) - [NZ Snares Is / Tini Heke Island Polygons (Topo, 1:25k)](http://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50893-nz-snares-is-tini-heke-island-polygons-topo-125k/) - [NZ Chatham Is island polygons (Topo, 1:50k)](http://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/50086-nz-chatham-is-island-polygons-topo-150k/)

This topographic coastline is the line forming the boundary between the land and sea, defined by mean high water. Islands from the NZ Island Polygons layer that lie within the NZ Coastline and Chatham Islands areas (i.e. islands in lakes, rivers and estuaries) have been removed.

The GIS workflow to create the layer is: 1. NZ Coastlines were converted from a polyline to a polygon using a polyline to polygon tool. 2. The resulting coastal polygon was then used as an input into an erase tool and run against the NZ Island Polygon layer to remove all islands lying within the NZ Mainland and Stewart Island. 3. This was then merged with the NZ Chatham Is island polygons (Topo, 1:50k) that have had the islands within the main island polygon removed, NZ Auckland Is Island Polygons (Topo, 1:50k), NZ Campbell Is / Motu Ihupuku Island, NZ Antipodes Is Island Polygons (Topo, 1:25k), NZ Kermadec Is Island Polygons (Topo, 1:25k), NZ Bounty Is Island Polygons (Topo, 1:25k) and NZ Snares Is / Tini Heke Island Polygons (Topo, 1:25k) layers using a merge tool. 4. Lake Onoke from the NZ Lake Polygons (Topo 1:50k) layer and Te Whanga Lagoon from the NZ Chatham Is lagoon polygons (Topo, 1:50k) layer were then erased from the resultant polygon layer to include these two water bodies in the coastline definition.
