The NZ Imagery Surveys dataset contains a comprehensive index of all orthophoto index tiles found on the LINZ Data Service. Each record in the dataset provides both a geometry of the maximum extent of the orthophoto index, as well as all attributes found in each index tile. This dataset therefore provides information to assess orthophoto coverage and metadata across the entire country.

Please refer to the NZ Imagery Surveys Data Dictionary for detailed metadata and information about this layer.
