  New Zealand has two top-level sets of administrative divisions: the District
Health Boards and the Regions. In this note I describe a hexagonal layout for
creating stylised maps of these divisions, and using colour, size, and
triangular subdivisions to compare data between divisions and across multiple
variables. I present an implementation in the DHBins package for R using both
base graphics and ggplot2; the concepts and specific hexagonal layout could be
used in any software.
