Offer a paid option to suppress the 'you're running an ad blocker' popup
I have an adblocker running and I'd prefer to leave it on since I print maps off the website and like not having an ad in those printed maps.
I'm also conscious that I'm depriving you of revenue so have thrown money at your givealittle page.
I'd like to suppress the 'you're running an adblocker' popup. It'd be great if you could add functionality to sell me a licence key or whatever, that disabled the popup. I reckon a good portion of your adblocked audience would pay $10 to $20 for such a key.
Win-win I reckon. But I'd probably…

Permanent Points Of Interest
For 'adventurers' being able to say, login to topomaps nz and being able to place markers at points of interest that you can always come back and refer to at a later date would be amazing. I myself am a photographer and the option to place markers at a potential spot would be an immense addition for many people who use this service.
Cheers

Easy searchable link to the Harper Pinnacles
Often during "Peninsula Tramping Club" trips to this area we visit the HARPER PINNACLES. This is a popular formation up the Harper River (true Right) from the Avoca River confluence.

Include Street names in search.
Currently Street names cannot be searched for. For example Scotts Road and Mangatarere Valley Road are used to access the Tararuas. But you can't find them to plan your drive to the road end.
I suggestion that street names be added to the search, but optionally, so you might have to click a box to include street names into the search.7 votes -
Adding boundaries per territorial unit level
I was just thinking for this online researching map to make things more interesting in a local and sub-national aspect. And that is to add boundary lines for every territorial unit level within the nation of New Zealand: from regional councils to territorial authorities to wards to even area unit-level divisions (either suburbs & towns & neighborhoods on urban areas or communities & localities & settlements & villages on rural areas). Any thoughts?

Upload GPX, KML & KMZ map overlays
The ability to upload GPX, KML & KMZ overlay files directly to the service for displaying over the topo map without needing to self-host using a 3rd party service like Dropbox.
This will make sharing tracks and other overlay information on the topo maps easier.

Subscription option to remove ads and provide personalised user space
For a small fee of maybe $25 / year a user can login to remove ads and get access to a personalised space with "my locations" for bookmarking locations and "my uploads" for hosting KML, GPX, etc. files on the site directly that can be private or shared.
If I was to offer a paid option I think I'd like to provide a bit more value for $10 / $10 a year. Perhaps a "my places" for bookmarking locations and "my uploads" for adding kml / gpx files, with the option of making the files shareable. I think I'll add…
