Land Information New Zealand

Geodetic Survey Services Panel for the Geodetic Control Programme

Toitū Te Whenua Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) ensures Aotearoa New Zealand has accurate information about where people and places are, people have confidence in their property rights and Crown property is well managed for future generations.
Our responsibilities include managing land titles, geodetic and cadastral survey systems, topographic information, hydrographic information, managing Crown property and supporting government decision making around foreign ownership.

LINZ provides an accurate geodetic system that supports property rights and enables the integration of diverse geospatial datasets. The geodetic system is supported through its network of survey marks, many of these marks have protection measures such as beacons, marker posts and covers.
Survey marks and the geodetic system are important for considering the effects of environmental change. Survey marks also play an important role in event (Earthquake, and Flooding) preparation, response, and recovery.

LINZ maintains the system and the physical marks and considers changes in positioning technology for, and the adaptions or innovations need to support change.
LINZ requires geodetic surveys to be undertaken on its behalf to maintain enable accurate positioning and spatial data management in Aotearoa New Zealand.

LINZ wishes to establish a panel of suppliers for geodetic control services under an annual programme of work.
The work supports the geodetic control system across Aotearoa New Zealand ensuring the integrity of existing geodetic marks, by maintaining, monitoring, upgrading, and establishing new marks where necessary.
Suppliers will be requested to undertake measurements, analysis, and reporting in line with LINZ’s prescribed formats, this includes construction, repair and maintenance of survey marks and their associated protection measures if required.
