ecr_vpdyr
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare ResearchA 25m resolution grid of mean annual vapour pressure deficit derived from the Land Environment New Zealand underlying climate dataset at an original resolution of 100m. This grid was resampled to 25m by bilinear interpolation to have visually compatible resolution to other data sets being used in modelling of ECR BASE carrying capacity. For use with both...Created 3 May 2018 • Updated 3 March 2025 -

ecr_fmask
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare ResearchThis is a binary mask layer for the Earning Capacity Rental project - identifying all areas that by definition (forested or water body) will have BASE carrying capacity set to zero (0 SU/ha). All other areas are set to one (unity). The final BASE carrying capacity is derived by multiplying the result of the regression models by this binary mask leavibng...Created 3 May 2018 • Updated 3 March 2025 -
ecr_aspect180
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare ResearchA 25m resolution grid of aspect in degrees north of south, for use as a regression variable for calculating BASE carrying capacity using Model 1 where:if aspect <= 180 then aspect180 = aspectelse if aspect > 180 then aspect180 = 360 - aspectThis aspect data is symmetrical around north-south, meaning east and west are considered equivalent (90...Created 3 May 2018 • Updated 3 March 2025 -
Land Elements (South Island)
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare ResearchThis data layer was derived from terrain analysis of a 25 m resolution national digital terrain model to create a setof landform elements. The landform elements are derived from a fuzzy classification based on local geometry (curvature and slope) and landscape context, and provide a primary foundation for mapping soil distribution in steepland land...Created 3 May 2018 • Updated 3 March 2025 -

Kaikoura - Before Earthquake (10th February 2016)
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare ResearchThis image comes from the European Space Agency’s Copernicus Programme taken on 10 February at 11:25 NZDT. This before image was chosen to have a similar sun angle to the after image (https://lris.scinfo.org.nz/layer/497-kaikoura-after-earthquake-22nd-november-2016/ ), thus minimising differences due to illumination.

Basic Ecosystems
Manaaki Whenua – Landcare ResearchThis layer was derived from three existing data layers: the Land Cover Database 2 (LCDB2) (MfE 2002); the Land Use Map (LUM) from the Land Use Carbon Analysis System (MfE 2008; Dymond et al. 2012); and EcoSat Forests (Shepherd et al. 2002).
