Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) today announced its sponsorship of the Support for Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Data Mashup category in The Great New Zealand Remix and Mashup Competition launched in Auckland this week. The LINZ sponsored category calls for the development of an application that best supports the Canterbury earthquake recovery using at least one piece of New Zealand central or local government data. LINZ encourages the applications to combine or remix data from its recently launched LINZ Data Service.
