Introduction
Welcome to Maps Online, a mapping system that allows you to view geographic data and information about properties in the Waipa District. The information available includes property, rating, district plan, water and drainage services, and aerial photography.
Compatibility
Maps Online is compatible with Microsoft Internet Explorer 6+. If you are using another browser such as Firefox or Safari you can still use Maps Online but it will be less interactive. We recommend using Internet Explorer whenever you use Maps Online.
Please note, Maps Online uses ‘pop-up’ browser windows. Some users block pop-up windows from opening on their screen by using tools within their web browser or by using third party ‘toolbar’ add-on software. Please ensure pop-ups are not blocked on your particular browser for Maps Online.
Your browser also allows viewing a webpage at different zoom scales for example 125%. Maps Online works best at 100% zoom scale.
Maps Online is optimized for use with high-speed internet and is not suitable for dial-up users.
Viewer download
Maps Online requires an add-on to be installed on your computer before it can work correctly. The Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) viewer should automatically download the first time you use this website. If it doesn’t, please click go to the Adobe website.
When prompted, accept the licence agreement and install the viewer. You may need to restart your browser. If you choose not to install the viewer Maps Online will not work as intended.
