3 mapped areas may deserve closer review
Liquefaction context
The matched parcel intersects the currently loaded Bay of Plenty Liquefaction Vulnerability layer, with mapped source classes of Undetermined and Possible. 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.
Natural-hazard context
The matched parcel intersects mapped natural-hazard source context from the currently loaded Bay of Plenty geothermal systems - indicative extents 2023 layer. Check source mapping and official records 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
Coastal setting
Coastline context: LINZ Topo50 mean-high-water coastline is mapped about 34 m from the parcel. Derived coast type: cliff coast and open-ocean coast. Open-ocean coast is inferred because no nearby harbour/estuary NZGB name matched the coast context. LINZ cliff-edge linework is also near this coastline within about 0 m of the parcel. This is coastline context, not a coastal-hazard model, boundary survey, or access finding.
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.
Planning context
The matched parcel is predominantly mapped as Rural_Residential in the currently loaded Western Bay of Plenty District planning layer.
School enrolment context
Mapped Ministry of Education enrolment-scheme coverage is available for this address. Mapped enrolment schemes associated with this location include Omokoroa School, Otumoetai College, and Tauranga Girls' College. Schools without enrolment schemes will not appear here, so this should not be read as a list of the nearest schools. Some state-integrated or special-character schools use broader enrolment or preference areas, so school eligibility should be confirmed using official school enrolment rules.
Terrain context
Terrain screening describes the matched parcel as generally gentle, with a median sampled slope of about 2.8°, a 90th-percentile slope of about 3.3°, and an elevation range of about 5.9 m. No steep or very-steep terrain was recorded in the sampled parcel metrics.
