Sediment Lost
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare ResearchThis layer depicts estimated sediment/soil loss across New Zealand and was created using the NZeem erosion model. Erosion control is defined as the prevention of soil loss by an ecosystem. NZeem has been calibrated from sediment discharges measured in New Zealand rivers (Dymond et al., 2010). This model estimates the long-term mean erosion rate from all...Created 3 May 2018 • Updated 3 March 2025 -

NZLRI Erosion Type and Severity
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare ResearchThe NZLRI is a spatial database containing about 100,000 polygons (map units), each of which describes a parcel of land in terms of five characteristics or attributes (rock, soil, slope, erosion, vegetation). This layer represents a GIS dissolve on the erosion attribute of the NZLRI.Created 3 May 2018 • Updated 3 March 2025 -

Wellington City Corrosion Zone
Wellington City CouncilWellington City Corrosion Zone as determined by NZS 3604:2011. Corrosion Zones relate to the severity of exposure to wind-driven salt, with B being low risk, C medium risk and D high risk (Category A is not applicable in New Zealand). The Wellington City territory authority area is located in zone C aside from the coastal zone. For this reason the coastal...Created 21 June 2020 • Updated 10 July 2020 -
