Kia ora,
The LINZ 3D toggle on their maps is really helpful for planning potential trap lines and visualizing the topography. Could the 3D map be available as a base layer on project and report maps on the website?
Everything looks so misleadingly simple when it is on a flat map!
Thanks

Good idea @emily.mossman! The LINZ Topo 50 map isn’t much help for middling-flat topography - once you zoom in enough to see the area you want to work on, all the topo line labels have usually vanished off the sides of the map. Also, 20m contours really aren’t that helpful in general, I checked against one peninsula site I know where one side of the site is completely walkable right to the beach and the other side is an abseil-access-only coastal cliff, and because the cliff is apparently just under 20m tall the two areas look identical on the topo map.
