LINZ Topographic Maps

I can't believe I haven't used this before now! LINZ allows free use of its maps, you can download TIFF images of New Zealand maps, PLUS the 'shapefiles', which contain vector and label data, including streets, street names, suburban area names, coastlines, and so on.

    if this is such a resource, to what use can ordinary mortals put it?
    or is it of particular value to you with your arts map?
    what other map producers are using it? that would be something to know.
