Case Study: LINZ Data Service achieves award-winning open data impact with Koordinates

How LINZ developed the award-winning LINZ Data Service

The customer, LINZ (Land Information New Zealand), sought to maximize the reuse of its extensive geospatial data and get it to a broader range of users beyond traditional GIS specialists. Using the Koordinates platform, their goal was to develop an open data service to make their data more accessible and improve the return on investment from the information they produced.

Koordinates provided the platform for the LINZ Data Service, enabling the publication of over 1,900 datasets. The solution delivered by Koordinates successfully reached key customer segments like surveyors and engineers and also transformed internal data consumption at LINZ. The results were exceptional, with the service winning awards, growing to over 40,000 users, and becoming business-critical for many organizations. Koordinates facilitated a stronger feedback loop with customers, leading to continuous improvement and remarkable, widespread impact.
