Summary of Data Collection (Data only): The purpose of the Viewshafts Overlay is to identify and maintain significant views within Wellington City that contribute to its sense of place and identity. To achieve this purpose, a number of viewshafts are defined so as to limit built development that would impinge on views of the focal elements at the end of viewshaft, and the context elements that provide a setting for those focal elements. All the views covered by the overlay have city-wide significance as they promote the relationship of the city to its landscape setting, provide a means of orientating oneself in the City and visual relief from the monotony of continuous built form. Many of those views are also recognised regionally, nationally or internationally. They are unique to Wellington and offer significant visual amenity to residents and visitors alike. There are 17 viewshaft traverse the following zones: City Centre Zone; Special Purpose Waterfront Zone; High Density Residential Zone; Medium Density Residential Zone; Special Purpose Wellington Town Belt Zone; Special Purpose Tertiary Education Zone; Open Space Zone.用途说明：本数据集为惠灵顿市议会（Wellington City Council, WCC）区规划（District Plan, DP）审查流程所创建的观景视野（Viewshafts）多边形数据集（SCHED 5）。 缩写说明：DP——区规划（District Plan）；ePlan——电子规划图（Electronic Plan），即区规划的网页版本。 数据安全：公开数据，可无限制自由共享与访问。 （仅数据）更新频率：静态无更新。 所有权归属：本数据集由惠灵顿市议会区规划团队所有，若需咨询该图层及合理使用场景相关问题，请联系邮箱[e-mail]。所有权指对内容的合法或行政管控权。 管理职责：本数据集由惠灵顿市议会城市洞察团队维护，若需了解该图层的创建与维护相关信息，请联系邮箱[e-mail]。管理职责涵盖内容的持续管护、维护与运营管理。 保管职责：本数据集由惠灵顿市议会城市洞察团队保管，若需了解该图层的创建与维护相关信息，请联系邮箱[e-mail]。 权威数据源（仅数据）：本数据集基于惠灵顿市议会区规划审查流程编制。 数据采集概述：本观景视野叠加图层的设立目的为识别并维护惠灵顿市内具有地域归属感与城市辨识度的重要景观视野。为实现该目标，本数据集划定了多处观景视野，以限制会遮挡视野终点核心景观元素及其背景环境元素的建筑开发行为。本叠加图层覆盖的所有视野均具有全市范围的重要意义：它们强化了城市与周边景观的关联，为市民提供了城市方位指引，并缓解了连片建成环境带来的视觉单调感。其中多数视野还获得了区域、国家乃至国际层面的认可，它们为惠灵顿所独有，可为本地居民与游客提供优质的视觉休闲体验。目前共有17处观景视野覆盖以下区域：市中心区域；特殊用途滨水区域；高密度住宅区；中密度住宅区；特殊用途惠灵顿城镇带区域；特殊用途高等教育区域；开放空间区域。
