Maritime New Zealand

Recorded as: MNZ

New Zealand's maritime authority and the coordinator of NAVAREA XIV.

National warning services and NAVAREA coordinators collect reports of dangers in their waters — from hydrographic surveys, navies, ports and ships — and broadcast them as numbered navigational warnings, some ocean-wide and some coastal.

Attributed to NAVAREAs, they fall mostly in NAVAREA XIV (7), NAVAREA XV (3) and NAVAREA XI (2).

Located messages lie in 9 sea areas, most often South Pacific Ocean, Tasman Sea and Southern Ocean.

The largest yearly count is 2008, with 208 messages. Collection is incomplete between 2024-05 and 2026-08-17, so those years are not comparable.
