Obviously you're going to cloak the facility where you keep your most hardened criminals.

elsewhere in the film, new zealand is on a map shown on a display.

Obviously you're going to keep the facility where you keep their most hardened criminals in plain sight.

I contend that it is not actually missing, it's just not visible from that perspective. When I recreate the shot in Google Earth only the extreme north tip of New Zealand is actually visible:

There's a lot north of Auckland, its a 5 and a half hour drive to Cape Reinga

But I have to agree that it is barely visible.
