General Statistical Areas

General Statistical Areas Legal definitions for statistical areas (001 to 052) were sourced from the legally authoritative definition given on Map 9: General Statistical Areas. The boundaries for statistical areas 005, 006, 007, 009H, 043 and 044 are defined in the Fisheries (Auckland and Kermadec areas commercial fishing) Regulations, 1986. Ambiguity exists as to the precise nature of the boundary between statistical areas 016 and 017 through Cook Strait. This boundary has been drawn following the boundary depicted on Map 9. The boundaries for statistical areas 091 to 801 are defined in the map “Proposed Statistical Areas for New Zealand EEZ”, created in December, 1989. Ambiguity exists with regards to the diagonal boundaries forming parts of statistical areas 101, 302, 303, 504, 603, 604, 605, 606, 701 and 801. These parts of the boundaries have been constructed according to the Fisheries Management Area (FMA) boundaries listed in Schedule 1 of the Fisheries Act 1989, with special consideration to Note 4; Mercator 41 was the projection system used to create these lines. All boundaries have been generalised where they reach the coastline. The outer New Zealand’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) boundary used to created these statistical areas was sourced from Land Information New Zealand (LINZ). All boundaries have been generalised inland where they reach the coastline. An authoritative coastal boundary of these statistical areas is dependent on the "mean high water mark". An accurate digital version of the mean high water mark for New Zealand does not exist at this stage. This information layer is considered reasonably accurate but not authoritative.The outer New Zealand’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) boundary used to created these statistical areas was sourced from Land Information New Zealand (LINZ).通用统计区域：编号001至052的统计区域法定定义，源自《地图9：通用统计区域》中的官方权威定义。编号005、006、007、009H、043及044的统计区域边界，在1986年《渔业（奥克兰与克马德克区域商业捕捞）条例》中予以界定。穿越库克海峡的016与017号统计区域间的边界精确属性存在歧义，该边界参照《地图9》中所示的边界进行绘制。编号091至801的统计区域边界，在1989年12月编制的《新西兰专属经济区拟议统计区域》地图中予以界定。编号101、302、303、504、603、604、605、606、701及801的统计区域部分斜向边界存在歧义。该部分边界依据1989年《渔业法》附表1所列的渔业管理区（Fisheries Management Area, FMA）边界划定，并特别参照注释4；绘制该边界所采用的投影系统为墨卡托41（Mercator 41）。所有触及海岸线的边界均已进行概化处理。用于划定上述统计区域的新西兰专属经济区（Exclusive Economic Zone, EEZ）外边界，数据源自新西兰土地信息局（Land Information New Zealand, LINZ）。所有抵达海岸线的边界，其内陆一侧均已完成概化处理。上述统计区域的权威海岸边界以“平均高潮位”为基准。截至目前，新西兰尚未存有平均高潮位的精准数字化版本，该信息图层精度尚可，但不具备权威性。用于划定上述统计区域的新西兰专属经济区（EEZ）外边界，数据源自新西兰土地信息局（LINZ）。
