A 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...

A 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.

A 25m resolution slope grid, derived from a digital elevation model (DEM) clipped from Landcare Research's national 25m DEM for use as a regression variable for calculating ECR BASE carrying capacity. For use with Model 2..

A 25m resolution grid of long-term mean annual solar radiation for use as a regression variable for calculating ECR BASE carrying capacity. NZMAS is derived from the LENZ underlying climate layer dataset. This grid has been resampled to 25m resolution using bilinear interpolation to deliver visually compatible apparent resolution as other input data sets...

The soil inventory survey of Wallace County, Southland was mapped at 1:50,000 scale and covers approximately 700,000 hectares of a total of 965,600 hectares. Within 6 physiographic regions, soils have been separated by differences in morphology, drainage and parent materials into 132 soil mapping units. Soils have been correlated to South Island soil sets...

This is an updated soils map based on information collected by O'Byrne, T.N. (1981), Interim Report on the Suitability of Soils in the Karamea District for Kiwi Fruit and other Horticultural Crops, Soil Bureau District Office Report NS 15. Digital data was checked, edited and updated by I.H. Lynn.

This data set (LCDB v4.1 Version Trace) allows users to track changes back to the previous version (v4.0), and to reconcile derived quantities, such as the total area of a class in a region, to those derived from the earlier LCDB version. Additionally the authority (and date) for mapping the change is recorded in this database where such a change has been...

This 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...

A 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...

The dataset contains polygons of soils of Opotiki District mapped at 1:15000. The attributes contain the soil series and the soil classification. No analytical properties of the soil are included.

Soilscapes are defined as "a landscape unit including a limited number of soil classes that are geographically distributed according to an identifiable pattern". These first approximation soilscapes are derived from legacy data and expert knowledge.

The dataset contains polygons of soils of Ohinemuri County mapped at 1:63360. The attributes contain the soil series and the soil classification. No analytical properties of the soil are included.

The dataset contains polygons of soils of Kaingaroa Plateau, mapped at 1:100 000. This dataset is compiled from earlier reports by Pullar (1980), Vucetich et al (1960), and Vucetich and Wells (1978). The attributes contain the soil series and the soil classification. No analytical properties of the soil are included.

The New Zealand Land Cover Database (LCDB) is a multi-temporal, thematic classification of New Zealand's land cover. It contains 33 mainland classes (35 including the offshore Chatham Islands). The classification has evolved from version to version but backward compatibility has been maintained. Geographic features are described by a polygon boundary, a...

The dataset contains polygons of soils of King Country mapped at 1:63360. The attributes contain the soil series and the soil classification. No analytical properties of the soils are included.

The dataset contains polygons of soils of Part Eltham County mapped at 1:50000. The attributes contain the soil series and the soil classification. No analytical properties of the soils are included.

The dataset contains polygons of soils of Pukekohe Borough mapped at 1:25000. The attributes contain the soil series and the soil classification. No analytical properties of the soil are included.

The dataset contains polygons of soils of Stratford County mapped at 1:63360. The attributes contain the soil series and the soil classification. No analytical properties of the soils are included.

Soilscapes are defined as "a landscape unit including a limited number of soil classes that are geographically distributed according to an identifiable pattern". These first approximation soilscapes are derived from legacy data and expert knowledge.

The New Zealand Fundamental Soil Layer originates from a relational join of features from two databases: the New Zealand Land Resource Inventory (NZLRI), and the National Soils Database (NSD). The NZLRI is a national polygon database of physical land resource information, including a soil unit. Soil is one in an inventory of five physical factors...
