3 mapped areas may deserve closer review
Liquefaction context
The matched parcel intersects the currently loaded Target level of detail in the liquefaction assessment and Liquefaction Vulnerability category layers, with mapped source classes of The rest of the Whangarei district; A and Undetermined; Level A; Alluvial Channel. 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.
Flood context
The matched parcel intersects mapped flood source context from the currently loaded Northland flood-susceptible land layer. Check source flood mapping, floor levels, drainage paths, 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
Coastal setting
Coastline context: LINZ Topo50 mean-high-water coastline is mapped about 21 m from the parcel. Derived coast type: harbour / sheltered bay. Nearby LINZ/NZGB marine names used for context include Sandy Bay (bay), Teparapara Bay (bay), Puriri Bay (bay). This is coastline context, not a coastal-hazard model, boundary survey, or access finding.
Wetland context
Wetland features are mapped on or 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 two currently loaded environmental, protected-land or ecology-related mapping layers. 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 Production Zone in the currently loaded Whangarei 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 Bay of Islands 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 4.8°, a 90th-percentile slope of about 5.1°, and an elevation range of about 3.5 m. No steep or very-steep terrain was recorded in the sampled parcel metrics.
