It’s now over two years since the release of OS OpenData, which gave more access to free, unrestricted Ordnance Survey mapping than ever before. It’s is helping businesses and developers to start to use geographic intelligence (GI) without any royalty payments and restrictions on reuse. Even if you haven’t used mapping data before, you can unlock the benefits immediately, making it even easier to achieve efficiency savings across the board.

Last month we ran a webinar, giving people the opportunity to gain a greater understanding of open data, and the tools and techniques to use OS OpenData.  We show you how to get up and running with OS OpenData, and start to benefit from GI. The 40 minute session covers:

• How to get Ordnance Survey free data
• How to use OS OpenData
• And how we can learn from an existing user of OS OpenData with Simon Fitzgerald from CIFAS

Over the course of the tutorial, Sarah Adams, our Financial Services Sector Manager and Chris Chambers, one of our GI Consultants, discussed the datasets that are available to use free of charge and their benefits.

If you didn’t get the chance to take part in the webinar, here’s the video - why not learn how to use our free mapping data?
