Information for Territorial Authorities
Survey Plan lodgements and TA certification under 100% electronic lodgement
Surveyors can lodge paper survey plans with LINZ only up to 1 September 2007, although paper plans prepared prior to this date will continue to be accepted for a period of time. Thereafter, all survey plans can only be lodged with LINZ electronically through Landonline e-survey.
All survey firms will therefore need to adopt electronic lodgement using LINZ' Landonline e-survey, by the cut-over date of 1 September, 2007.
TA certification can be paper-based or electronic
After 1 September 2007, Territorial Authorities will retain their existing options to certify either:
- On paper, or
- Electronically via LINZ' TA e-certification.
TA e-certification offers Territorial Authorities time and cost savings through certifying cadastral surveys electronically. We expect to see the trend from paper to electronic certification continue, and would like to see the remaining paper-based Territorial Authorities adopt electronic certification.
TA e-certification training and support available
LINZ will provide assistance for new Landonline TA e-certification users, and support for all Territorial Authorities through the transition.
LINZ provides full training and support to all new users. Organisations joining Landonline receive a welcome pack containing full details of the training tools, support services, reference and technical help material available.
