Map for desktop and laptop computers
Usual map for interactive use.
The layer list contains a selection of commonly used layers - tick to display, untick to hide. Use the Add button to add additional layers. Layers higher up the list may mask those further down.
Map for detailed (pdf) printing
Uses smaller labels to fit more detail on a printed page.
Choose your layers, then select the Save (print) map tab on the left panel. Drag the handles on the orange box to set the area to print, then click the Save button. It can take up to 30 seconds to prepare the printout, and more to download the file.
If you only need to print a small area, or you are not looking for specific layers and detail, you may prefer to print using the standard map above. Labels on the printed page will be larger and easier to read.
Designed for small screens. Open the web page http://services.main.net.nz/coastmap/maps/mobile in the web browser on your smartphone or tablet. You must have an internet connection, which means a cellular connection if you want to use the map on mobile phones.
If your mobile device has a built in satellite GPS, you can see you where you are on the map. Click the
symbol and answer yes to allow the phone/tablet to share its location with the map.
