I was doing Naiper and even had it layed down "until" last month i brought a new PC and burnt out now 3 hard drives which equaled 2500 gig of all my data 8 years of back ups which included everthing ive worked on or was working except my Hamilton Project ,though i nearly lost that to one morning .
After my stroke of bad luck over the last 3 months , i think ill look into it later once i have myself running again but its open area for anyone ,there is linz imagery source here in NZ which has naiper hastings right through to one corner of lake taupo ,3500 enclosed sq miles ,you will need some knowledge of GIS software ..

As mike mentioned, the aerials do exist for free so i'm sure it will only be a matter of time before it is converted

I've been waiting for Napier stuff for a while too. Unfortunately, the LINZ stuff is ancient so I've been hoping someone would approach NCC or Regional Council to see if they would cough up some recent stuff (like, that has the Prebensen Drive extension in it at least) for cheap or free. The big prob with the old stuff is that it is missing a key feature just short of the south approach (34) of the runway - a major road extension called "Prebensen Drive". It's been there for a few year's now. However, anything 2004 or older doesn't even have the beginnings of the major roadworks that took place - works that radically altered the area which one has to fly over to land. Further, there is now a large housing development in that area called "Lagoon Farm" something-or-other, which has grown in leaps and bounds over the last 2-3 years. Call me picky, but if I'm gonna enjoy Napier photo-real, I'd like it to at least look like Napier today, not be a time-warp trip...

Know what I mean? Hence me not being in an overly large rush to have photo-real, knowing that much of the free stuff is just too old.

Not sure what age the stuff was that Mike was using. Eddy: what source imagery are you using, and how old is it?

There is some recent imagery available as part of KiwImage, but although this was touted as the replacement for the LINZ project, it seems to be next to impossible to get hold of any images.
But Hawkes Bay is pretty well covered.

Here's an interesting bit from the KiwImage site:

QUOTE

The New Zealand Defence Force(NZDF) are the custodians of the imagery on behalf of the agencies that have joined the project. To get access to the KiwImage products, you need to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the NZDF.[/quote]

Not quite the same as LINZ's great online images.
