Nau Mai Haere Mai - Welcome

This is a temporary website for the Māori land visualisation tool developed by Landcare Research - Manaaki Whenua from work carried out between July 2009 and December 2010 under contract to Te Puni Kōkiri.

This website is primarily intended to help Māori land owners and managers to find out more about the physical characteristics, constraints and potential of their Māori land blocks. At this early stage it uses limited land resource and environmental information. We welcome your thoughts and comments on the design of this tool. This prototype tool will be available for evaluation until November 1, 2011.

Before you begin...

This tool is a prototype only released for feedback and comment. The tool has been released for feedback and comment to inform its further development towards the final version. The Māori land block (cadastral) information used in this demonstration tool is from the Māori Land Online, Ministry of Justice website, which is the authoritative source. Please read our terms of use statement to learn more.

How do I find a place or a land block?

Type the name of the place (e.g. "Rotorua") or the land block (e.g. "Rangitoto A24B") into the search box at the top of the page.

You can also search for places with the interactive map below. Use the controls to zoom and move the map around. Click on land parcels to learn more about them.
