To support our UK clients in their core activities we have secured Ordnance Survey Partner status. This means that clients can purchase all Ordnance Survey mapping products from us, including the large-scale OS MasterMap product, rather than having to find a separate supplier. We will continue to add to this data service whenever relevant datasets are identified, and we would welcome your suggestions.
To set up an online account please contact our sales team on 0207 869 8076 or by email at [email protected]
In conjunction with our data partners, we are also able to commission aerial photography and lidar data. Please contact our UK Consultancy team to discuss your requirements.
In brief:
- OS dxf/ dwg map data for planning.
- OS shape file and Mapinfo map data for GIS.
- Infoterra land and building height data.
- Aerial Photography and LiDAR acquisition service.
Data Products
Ordnance Survey products
SBL Infotech can supply the full OS product suite in a range of different formats. The main products are:
- OS MasterMap (OSMM). Available as sections of data in shape/ MapInfo/ dxf and dwg formats. Survey scales are 1:1250 in urban areas and 1:2500 in rural. Also available as A4/A3/A2/A1 pdf, tiff, doc image files to support the planning application process. These files include scale bar, marginalia and north arrow and can be output at 1:200, 1:500, 1:1250 and 1:2500 scales.
- OS Integrated Transport Network (ITN). Ideal for route planning or to manage your resources, it consists of three elements: Road Network (road geometry), Road Routing Information (routing information for drivers on mandatory and banned turns and other restrictions) and Urban Paths. Available in ESRI or MapInfo formats
- OS VectorMap Local. For the creation of your own backdrop mapping. Attributes: Roads, railways, vegetation, boundaries, urban Extent, buildings.
- OS 1:25,000 scale colour raster
- OS 1:50,000 scale colour raster
- OS Address Layer 2 (AL2). Links any property address to the location on the map. Provides precise coordinates for more than 27 million residential and commercial properties in Great Britain
- A range of free datasets for those customers who make regular or sizeable purchases of any of the above. These include: OS 1:10,000 scale Streetview; OS VectorMap District; OS 1:250,000 scale Road mapping.
