Tawa Borough Council 1 to 480 scale aerial photograph transparencies

Descriptive Data

Archives Identifier00565Date Range1974DescriptionAerial photograph transparencies of the geographic area administered by the Tawa Borough Council. The transparencies have been annotated with street names. The record maps record road and section boundaries, and as-built water, drainage and stormwater reticulation.

Based on knowledge of similar records held and used by WCC it is though the two were often used in conjunction with each other. They were used as in-house reference tools for various purposes, such as processing building and land use applications, and managing infrastructure such as water and drainage pipes.

Flown in 1974, transparencies created at a scale of 40’ to the inch. They use an in-house indexing system devised by the Tawa Borough Council. Numbered 1-66. In 1974 arrangements were made for a new set of aerial transparencies to be produced. Truebridge Callender Beach (TCB) arranged for the photography to be done on behalf of the Borough Council. The set transparencies are all dated 6 November 1974. It is not known why the transparencies were not produced to match the indexing used for the record sheets.Quantity (Linear Metres)1AccrualsNoneMediumTransparencySystem of ArrangementEach sheet has a unique grid reference numberCollection TypeWellington City Council
