Data held by councils on properties in their area, eg geographic coordinates, property boundaries or size, street address, land and capital values, zoning category, and other basic metadata. Some councils already make this data available, eg via the Auckland Council GIS Viewer. However data for only a small number of properties can be extracted at any one time.
Understanding relationships between property values and spatial characteristics (eg proximity to amenities or transport infrastructure). Understanding effect of council spatial plans on property values and urban growth. Understanding how council zoning decisions change over time. Understanding relationships between property values and other characteristics eg income levels, crime rates, education, etc. Understanding how urban density (average property size) varies across time and space.
Allowing independent researchers to undertake geospatial analysis of property values, property sizes, council zoning, and other characteristics.

This data is available now to Local and Central Government. A small number of councils have chosen to make their data available to the public under a CC:BY 4.0 licence.
Unfortunately educational institutions do have some commercial interests and we cannot open the data to them via the current agreements we have with councils. Any further opening of this data is at the discretion of the councils as they own the data.
The data that is open to the public is here: https://data.linz.govt.nz/data/category/property-ownership-boundaries/nz-properties/
The Data Dictionary should help you to design a database to store the data and the National District Valuation Roll dataset is the one that contains the information in this request.
