Not too sure where to post this, but if you could add Auckland, NZ that’d be wicked. It used to be on here and now looks like it’s gone? Maybe part of an update or something that’s wiped it

A lot of nz isn’t on here. Cities like Rotorua and Nelson were never on the site and haven’t been imported with the latest update. Not a big deal @JamesChevalier , but I though those cities would have been imported, as comparable cities such as Christchurch are?

See below for the thread/Google Doc that describes the different regions being imported. There’s only two shown for NZ. [image] Help Needed: Gather admin levels for Countries Support I need help gathering the admin levels for regions & cities in countries. The first sheet …

Yeah, Auckland is at admin level 4. Same with Rotorua and Nelson , @katsipis . :thinking: But the regions that I have in there now are all admin level 4 as well. I’ll need to look into this one…

Re-opening this so I can figure out what I need to do here. Should I add Auckland as a Region of NZ and as the only city within that region? Should I handle Nelson the same way? Should I add the Bay of Plenty Region and then add Rotorua as its admin level 6 record within that? I think this is the…

Hi James, great to see you having another crack at some of the more unusually names NZ regions (including my home city and region of Auckland…) The regions listed above are correct, though I have seen occasionally Tasman-Nelson listed as one area. I’m not sure how aligned to OSM data you need to b…

Within Auckland (admin level 4), there are a number of “cities” (admin level 8). These seem worth importingt to me, do you agree? Maungakiekie-Tamaki Waitemata Kaipatiki Mangere-Otahuhu Orakei Otara-Papatoetoe Devonport-Takapuna Howick Puketapapa Whau Albert-Eden Upper Harbour Hibiscus …

I think those admin level 8 “cities” would be what you would bring in to cover Auckland, and it looks to be similar to some Australian cities (I run a bit in Adelaide too). Bay of Plenty is only a region (state type region) but I would suggest importing those level 6 admin entities. I read a bit la…

I’m already making decent progress in the spreadsheet - check out How to help with missing/broken cities/regions I think I’ve got a solid plan based on your help here … let me know if anything for NZ looks wrong in that spreadsheet, though.

That looks good - I assume when the region comes in at level 4 any level 6 or 8 “cities” below also come in? i.e. they don’t need to be listed separately on the spreadsheet? Looks like good progress, looking forward to it seeing it up and running, will be sure to send a donation your way

Yeah, whichever level I note in that Notes column is the city level that I’ll import. If we end up seeing that some cities are missing because they’re at a different level, then I can import those separately (I’ve seen this for places like Auckland, Manhattan, etc). Thanks for your help on this!
