Queenstown-Lakes District Layers

This layer provides the current strata parcel polygons and their associated descriptive data as a single layer to facilitate their use independently of other primary parcels or non primary parcels.

Strata parcels are portions of land where the vertical extent is limited.

The combination of this layer with the primary parcels layer provides all current parcels for New Zealand (i.e. excludes Historic and Pending parcels)

If you require approved or historic parcels see the All Parcels Layer

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 layer which contains accuracies for each parcel node.

The originating data for parcel/title associations includes some non-official sources where the official data does not support a link. For more information see

Orthophotography within the Queenstown Lakes Region captured in the flying season of 2022-2023. Coverage encompasses Wānaka, Lake Hāwea and Luggate.

Imagery was captured for Queenstown Lakes District Council by Landpro Ltd, 13 Pinot Noir Drive, Cromwell 9310, New Zealand.

Data comprises:
• 166 ortho-rectified RGB GeoTIFF images in NZTM projection, tiled into the LINZ Standard 1:1000 tile layout.
• Tile layout in NZTM projection containing relevant information.

The supplied imagery is in terms of New Zealand Transverse Mercator (NZTM) map projection. Please refer to the tile index layer for specific details, naming conventions, etc.

Imagery supplied as 10cm pixel resolution (0.1m GSD), 3-band (RGB) uncompressed GeoTIFF. The final spatial accuracy is ±0.3m at 95% confidence level in clear flat areas.

Note: DEM and DSM were also captured as part of this survey, and are published as
Otago - Wānaka LiDAR 1m DEM (2022-2023) and
Otago - Wānaka LiDAR 1m DSM (2022-2023)

Index Tiles ONLY, for actual orthophotos see layer Queenstown Lakes 0.1m Urban Aerial Photos (2022-2023)
