DATA SOURCE:
The National Monitoring System (NMS) dataset is compiled, from data supplied by Local Authorities (Regional, Unitary, and Territorial Councils), by the Ministry for the Environment as part of the NMS for the Resource Management Act.
Whilst every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of this data, the Ministry makes no representations or warranties about its accuracy, reliability, completeness or suitability for any particular purpose and disclaims all responsibility and all liability (including without limitation, liability in negligence) for all expenses, losses, damages (including indirect or consequential damage) and costs which you might incur as a result of the product being inaccurate or incomplete in any way or for any reason.
All datasets are updated as new information becomes available.

Description:
All applications for certificates of compliance, existing use certificates or deemed permitted activities (boundary or temporary and marginal) issued, withdrawn or declined.
The NMS monitors implementation of the RMA by local authorities and includes information on planning, consenting, monitoring and enforcement.
Most of the questions asked in the NMS are the same from year to year. Some are added or dropped as information requirements change.
A data dictionary is attached which describes the data collected about certificates of compliance, existing use certificates or deemed permitted activities (boundary or temporary and marginal) applications over time. The most recent (2018/19) data collection template and a guidance document to councils about how to fill out the collection template are also attached.
Further information on the NMS and the dataset can be located on the Ministry website - www.mfe.govt.nz/rma/monitoring-rma-implementation

INDEX ONLY: These footprints are the index for the 'Sentinel2 2020 Chatham Islands' mosaic. It has been provided to enable users to explore coverage and capture dates of the component imagery. To enquire about ordering the imagery itself, please e-mail lucas[at]mfe.govt.nz.

The imagery represented is a 10m, ten-band multispectral, cloud-minimised mosaic of Sentinel 2A and 2B satellite tiles over Chatham Islands made from scenes captured late-2019/early-2020.

INDEX ONLY: These footprints are the index for the 'Sentinel2 2020 Mainland NZ' mosaic. It has been provided to enable users to explore coverage and capture dates of the component imagery. To enquire about ordering the imagery itself, please e-mail lucas[at]mfe.govt.nz. The imagery represented is a 10m, ten-band multispectral, cloud-minimised mosaic of Sentinel 2A and 2B satellite tiles over mainland New Zealand made from scenes captured late-2019/early-2020.

The dataset maps areas of winter forage cropping and intensive winter grazing occurring in hill country areas during 2018. Hill country is defined as areas where paddocks have an average slope of greater than 7 degrees. Paddocks are classified into crop type and a measure is provided of the proportion of bare ground within the paddock after grazing.
