This layer is a component of the Topo500 data. The Topo500 map series will, when it is created, provide updated topographic mapping for the New Zealand mainland at 1:500,000 scale.

A pipeline is a string of interconnected pipes used for the transport of matter, nowadays mainly oil or gas. A submarine or land pipeline is a pipeline lying on or buried under the seabed or the land.

The WGN53-NZVD2016 grid enables the conversion of normal-orthometric heights from the Wellington 1953 local vertical datum to the New Zealand Vertical Datum 2016 (NZVD2016).

The conversion value is represented by the attribute “O”, in metres.

This conversion and NZVD2016 are formally defined in the LINZ standard LINZS25009.

WGN53-NZVD2016 is published on a two arc-minute grid (approximately 3.6 kilometres) extending over the benchmarks that nominally define the extent of the Wellington 1953 vertical datum (174.4° E to 176.4° E, 39.1° S to 41.6° S).

The height conversion grid models the difference between the Wellington 1953 vertical datum and NZVD2016 using the LINZ GPS-levelling marks. From the GPS-levelling marks the expected accuracy of WGN53-NZVD2016 is better than 2 centimetres (95% Confidence interval).

More information on converting heights between vertical datums can be found on the LINZ website.

An area containing at least one runway, used for landing, take-off, and movement of aircraft.
