DHBs[edit]

Hi there, just a friendly reminder that you wanted to prepare maps for the district health boards. Were the GIS data good enough that you could see the old boundaries prior to the Otago and Southland merger? If not, the boundary would presumably have been the regional boundary; you might as well produce maps for those two merged entities, too. One day, we'll have articles for all of them ... Schwede66 05:09, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi – yes, thanks for reminding me, I may have gotten sidetracked! Unfortunately, the GIS dataset seems to only show the 2015 boundaries, not any historic ones. A quick look at various documents suggests that the Southland-Otago DHB boundary did not completely align with the regional boundary (e.g. see the map on page 8 of this document). The main difference being that Queenstown, despite regionally being a part of Otago, appeared to be within the Southland DHB boundary. I can try and have a dig around for any other datasets that could help. -Air55- (Talk) 06:49, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Aha! Just had a look and it appears that the old Southland-Otago DHB boundary around Queenstown matches the boundaries of the local Community Boards (of which a GIS dataset is available). This means I can stitch together maps for both of the old DHBs. I can get onto that after I make base maps for the current DHBs. -Air55- (Talk) 07:02, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Champion! Schwede66 16:50, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I've dealt with the DHB red links. Which means that we could now do with maps for Southland and Otago DHBs. I've also spotted that in the legislation, the boundaries are described in detail. Here's what it says in the act (in the 3 September 2007 print, which is the oldest version that I can find):

  • Representative geographical area based on territorial authority and ward boundaries as constituted as at 1 January 2001
  • Otago DHB: Waitaki District, Queenstown-Lakes District (Wanaka Ward only), Central Otago District, Dunedin City, Clutha District
  • Southland DHB: Southland District, Gore District, Invercargill City, Queenstown-Lakes District (Arrowtown and Queenstown Wakatipu Wards only)

I note that Waitaki District is split between Canterbury and Otago, so part of Canterbury falls into the Southern DHB (and did previously fall into the Otago DHB). Does that help? Can I help in any way? Schwede66 08:03, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hope you are well. Still keen to hear whether I can help in any way. Schwede66 00:53, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi there, sorry for not getting back to you earlier; I've had a bunch of work that had been keeping me busy recently. That does seem to help a lot, thank you for finding that. The challenging part is that it appears that the earliest accessible GIS dataset of the wards dates back to 2013, and as I understand their boundaries are reviewed the year before each local election. So it'll probably be important to check that none of the wards along the Otago/Southland DHB border changed their boundaries when the boundaries were revised for the 2013 local election. I'll see what I can dig up and let you know how I go. -Air55- (Talk) 02:19, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, this is too easy! We know that there hasn't been any change in boundary between Otago and Southland because Schedule 1 of the legislation lists all the changes (basically just wording changes, legislation catching up, then the 2010 merger, but in 2015 the Chatham Islands moved from Hawke's Bay to Canterbury). You might as well produce the pre-2015 maps for Canterbury and Hawke's Bay that show where the Chathams fell back then. Schwede66 05:58, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Fantastic! I shall get to work on those maps when I next get the chance. -Air55- (Talk) 02:01, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi again! Here are the completed boundary maps for the Southland and Otago DHBs. Additionally I've made blank maps for the 2001–10 and 2010–15 boundaries. I haven't figured out a way to best display the Chathams and their former connection to the Hawke's Bay DHB though... I'll keep working on that. -Air55- (Talk) 02:54, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Awesome. Thank you! Schwede66 10:40, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for improving the kererū article[edit]

So nice to see a decent coverage of significance to Māori; missing from so many of our bird articles.—Giantflightlessbirds (talk) 03:06, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not a problem – and thanks for the message, I appreciate it. It's something I hope to get around to doing (eventually!) with the other bird articles. :-) -Air55- (Talk) 05:04, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
