Abstract

The NZ Localities: City Alias table is part of the [Fire and Emergency NZ Localities dataset](https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/104830).

The City Alias table includes alternative/alias/adjacent polygons (cities) names for cities.

The Fire and Emergency NZ Localities dataset is used by Fire and Emergency New Zealand for locating and responding to emergencies within New Zealand. Coverage includes the New Zealand mainland, Stewart Island/Rakiura and offshore islands, as well as lakes and inland islands.

It is maintained by Fire and Emergency New Zealand and has been made available via the LINZ Data Service as part of LINZ’s key datasets for resilience and climate change programme.

For detailed metadata about this dataset, see the [Fire and Emergency NZ Localities Data Dictionary](https://data.linz.govt.nz/document/22739).

Purpose

The City Alias table can be joined to the Fire and Emergency NZ Localities dataset to provide alternative/alias names for a city.
The Fire and Emergency NZ Localities dataset is used to verify area location information for any place in New Zealand. Its primary use is to aid in location-based identification and assist emergency staff to be able to respond quick to a call without confusion. As such there are a few specifications that are used to define a locality.
The geographic subdivisions in the Fire and Emergency NZ Localities dataset may be also used as building blocks for larger subdivisions such as cities and towns.
This dataset provides Fire and Emergency New Zealand a single source to be used for the following:

- communication centres to locate, verify and for dispatching

- for reporting (generally in aggregated areas e.g. suburbs)

- evaluation and planning, especially for medium term deployment and resourcing

- a common dataset to be used when exchanging information with other agencies

Statement

Localities are built mainly using LINZ cadastral data that is no more than three months old. The exception to this is where a territorial authority has gazetted their suburb boundaries which we use even though they may not follow cadastral boundaries. Coastlines are a mixture of cadastral data and topographical data - which is used where it has been found that relevant detail falls outside the cadastral "coastline".
