3 mapped areas may deserve closer review
Liquefaction context
The matched parcel intersects the currently loaded Otago liquefaction susceptibility and GNS Liquefaction layers, with mapped source classes of Moderate to high and Area C - moderate to high susceptibility; ground predominantly underlain by poorly consolidated estuarine or marine sediments; uplifted coastal terrace around Catlins Lake and adjoining stream valleys. This is mapped screening context rather than a site-specific geotechnical assessment. Check source mapping and seek site-specific advice where foundation, building, insurance or finance questions matter.
Coastal hazard context
The matched parcel intersects mapped coastal hazard source context from the currently loaded Otago storm-surge affected areas - all scenarios layer. Check source mapping and council/LIM material before relying on it.
Tsunami evacuation-zone context
The matched parcel overlaps mapped tsunami evacuation-zone areas in the currently loaded evacuation mapping. Check current Civil Defence and council guidance for evacuation information.
Useful property context
Watercourse / drainage context
Mapped river, stream or drainage features occur near the parcel. Check mapped locations, relevant setbacks, drainage paths, and any site-specific water/ecology requirements before planning works.
Ecology / vegetation / public land context
The parcel intersects one currently loaded environmental or protected-land context layer. These mapped overlays may be relevant to vegetation clearance, earthworks, drainage, subdivision or building layout. Check the individual source and applicable requirements before relying on them.
Planning context
The matched parcel is predominantly mapped as Rural Settlement Resource Area in the currently loaded Clutha District planning layer.
Terrain context
Terrain screening describes the matched parcel as mostly flat, with a median sampled slope of about 0.1°, a 90th-percentile slope of about 0.2°, and an elevation range of about 0.2 m. No steep or very-steep terrain was recorded in the sampled parcel metrics.
