Scale
Map scales vary to suit the region or track. The maps are either small format: 297x420mm (A3), or large format: 840x600mm (about A1). Some maps are double-sided.
Legibility
Recreational information is easy to read, complementing essential topographic information without clutter. A realistic landform provides a useful geographic context and enables the user to engage with the landscape. The road network is very detailed and yet is clear and easy to follow.
Quality
Where print runs allow, maps are printed on Polyart synthetic waterproof paper. Tramping maps are printed on LandMap high-wet-strength paper.
Folded maps are presented in a clear vinyl wallet for protection. The maps reflect a high level of cartographic technology and production standards, resulting in a quality long-lasting product.
Digital map
The maps are available as large georeferenced PDFs. These offer the opportunity to window-in on a small area, and copy and paste it into a document for saving and printing for personal use. Other formats are also available. Contact NewTopo.
GPS
All maps are on the New Zealand Transverse Mercator projection and are GPS compatible. Refer NZTM Grid for details.
