This dataset provides an index to the New Zealand Raster Charts available through the LINZ Data Service showing extent and Paper Chart attributes.

THIS DATA DOES NOT REPLACE NAUTICAL CHARTS AND MUST NOT BE USED FOR NAVIGATION.

The hydrographic raster data made available through the LINZ Data Service is based on the Paper Nautical Charts published and maintained by the New Zealand Hydrographic Authority at Land Information New Zealand (LINZ).

The NZ Paper Nautical Chart Index contains details of six international charts which are adopted by LINZ. Due to copyright reasons LINZ is not authorised to make the chart images available for download on LDS. These charts can be purchased from chart retailers.

This dataset provides an index to the Electronic Navigational Charts (ENC) available through the LINZ Data Service showing extent and ENC attributes.

The ENC index is compiled from the S-57 Object Class “Nautical publication information” which is used to relate additional nautical information or publications to the data. The attributes are populated by Land Information New Zealand’s (LINZ) production database.

S-57 is a standard used to exchange digital hydrographic data between hydrographic offices and to distribute this data to users.
This dataset was compiled for the use in the scale ranges 1:1,000 to 1:1,500,000 and smaller.
