The CSDs are examples of plans approved under the Cadastral Survey Rules 2021 in terms of the category listed, but they are not necessarily examples of best practice.
The categories are based on purpose or specific boundary attributes.
More examples may be added over time. Please provide feedback to customersupport@linz.govt.nz.
The categories are listed below with their drop-down list of CSD numbers. A brief description for each category is provided, with links to some relevant articles from the Cadastral Survey Guidelines.
