Text description of figure

Figure 1 is a large-scale map of New Zealand, using colour to denote variations in bathymetry (depth of the ocean) and topography (height of the land). This map is overlaid with the outer boundary of New Zealand's EEZ, which generally extends 200 nautical miles from the coast.
