<br /><strong>Updated with new data on 13 Apr 2023</strong><br />
<p>**This dataset is not currently being maintained and includes some track information that is out-of-date. ** </p>
<hr>
<p>The NZ Tracks data identifies walking and biking tracks across New Zealand and has been developed through a collaboration between the Local Government Geospatial Alliance (LGGA), LINZ, Department of Conservation and the Walking Access commission.</p>
<p>The dataset is currently a work in progress. The data has been made available to enable users to access the data supplied to date in its relatively raw form, and to identify the gaps in data provision so that these can be addressed.</p>
<p>The ultimate aim is to provide a national network of walking and biking tracks, including track grade, conditions of use and supplementary information.</p>
<p>For more information about the Local Government Geospatial Alliance project which initiated the creation of this dataset please refer to <a href="http://lgga-nz.blogspot.co.nz/p/tracks-project.html">lgga-nz.blogspot.co.nz/p/tracks-project.html</a><br>
Please be aware of the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>LINZ has not undertaken any data quality assurance on the data geometry or attribution.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The existence of track does not necessarily indicate public right of access.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Closed tracks are defined as being no longer maintained or passable and should not be used by recreationalists.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The Department of Conservation or other authorities should be contacted for the latest information on tracks and huts.</p>
