LINZ Data Service (LDS) Item Page - NZ Addresses: Roads
The dataset provides linear geometries against which official road names and street addresses can be recorded. Its purpose is also to enable automated meshblock address reports (for electoral and statistical purposes) so as to identify the presence of a road name in meshblocks where street addresses do not exist.
For this dataset (as opposed to the NZ Roads Sections), individual road section geometries have been aggregated to a single road centreline geometry where those subsections share the same name, and are generally contiguous. Because some roads have multiple names for part of their lengths, some road centreline geometries will duplicate parts of other roads even though there is in reality only one road formation.
Refer to the NZ Addresses Data Dictionary for detailed metadata and information.
These road centrelines do not represent actual road formation, nor do they represent legal access. They must not be considered as topographic, cadastral, or legal.
This dataset contains the core attributes of a road to support simple searching or provide a road name context for cadastral data views.
