  • NZRM Progress Report 2023-05-09: Midland Line, Main North Line, Auckland

    In the past week the work on NZ Rail Maps has mainly been in the Midland Line project which is scheduled for completion by the end of the month. After a bit of slack time, work resumed again in full force towards the end of last week and is pushing ahead rapidly. The current work…

  • New Zealand Rail Maps Project Development Report – April 2022

    Welcome to the New Zealand Rail Maps project development report for April 2022. This month the project has supported the launch of the new Transport Safety Blog NZ site.

  • New Zealand Rail Maps Project Development Report – September 2021

    Good morning and welcome to the project development report for September 2021. In the past month, the main focus has shifted to the North Island Main Trunk volume, Volume 2. When this is completed it is expected to become the first volume that will appear on the NZ Rail Maps Volumes site. The Volumes site…

  • NZRM Update 2021-03-09

    Good evening. As noted on the project’s Facebook page, this week’s update will focus on completing coverage of the webmaps for the North Island, rather than adding all volumes in the South Island as was originally proposed in this timeframe. Last week’s update took a lot more work than planned, partly because of extra work…

  • NZRM Update 2021-03-04

    Good afternoon and welcome to this week’s NZ Rail Maps Project update. As it says on the Facebook page this week’s update is a few days later than planned, normally updates come out on Mondays. The reason is that it was decided last week the update milestone would be for completing all trunk corridors in…

  • North Auckland Line [0Y]: Weekly Progress Report – Week 42, 2020

    Good morning. Last week’s blog referred to samples of Southdown and suggested a method of providing access to specific levels of aerial photography for each station.

  • North Auckland Line [0X]: Weekly Progress Report – Week 41, 2020

    Good morning. In the last couple of weeks, work has focused both on adding more detail to the maps as is the usual effort, and developing the website. The latter proceeds slowly by steps as it is in effect a completely from the ground up effort which has started from the bare bones of a…

    If you’re reading this on Facebook or on our Groups.io project group then welcome to our new web site.

  • NZ Rail Maps Project Development Report [2020K]: Web Development Trial

    The above is the home page you will see when you put the address http://live.blog.nzrailwebmaps.nz into your web browser. It is starting as a default WordPress site and as Project spends time customising it, will change in appearance to resemble this blog. As of today, Project has signed with GoDaddy NZ for 1 year for…

  • North Auckland Line [0W]: Weekly Progress Report – Week 39, 2020

    Project recently has completed some mapping of Okaihau / Rangiahua sections, Dargaville / Kaihu sections and North Auckland Line main route. However due to other life priorities work has slowed during the past week and Project does not expect the present very slow progress to show much increase during the current week. Work has started…
