The dataset displays the Waihi Landslide land instability area near Waihi Township at the southern end of Lake Taupō, as identified in the Taupō District Plan. Other land instability areas, such as Tomos and Uncompacted Fill sites, have locations that are difficult to pinpoint and, therefore, have not been included in this dataset.
