New Ordnance Survey pricing and licensing model launches

Ordnance Survey® launches a new Pricing and Licensing Model

 
Ordnance Survey® has announced that as from 18th November 2010, its commercial partners will be able to supply the full range of OS Mapping Data under the same pricing model and terms that are currently in place for data supplied by Ordnance
 

James Brayshaw, Sales and Marketing Development Director, Ordnance Survey:

 
“...we are focusing on the opportunities in the marketplace and the potential growth therein. Our new pricing and licensing model makes it easier than ever for end users to engage directly with our partners like Centremaps to obtain their data.”

The new pricing and licensing policy enables Centremaps to now offer mapping data at the same prices and licence terms as Ordnance Survey Direct making it easier for customers to buy and manage their data in one location.


New Pricing     
 
A simplified pricing model has been introduced which covers all sizes of data order from 1Ha to National Coverage and no longer restricts Partners, from supplying larger data areas.

You can download all of your OS Data directly from our order interface at ww.centremapslive.com with no minimum order value and at prices which are lower than those currently available at Ordnance Survey Direct.


New Licensing     

The existing licences under which OS Data is supplied, Internal Business Licence (IBU), Plan Design Build  (PDB) and the Framework Direct Licence, have been amalgamated into one single Standard Business Use Licence which has multi-year licensing options.


New Products            

Partners can now offer the full range of products which were only available through Ordnance Survey Direct.  Products including large areas of OS Mastermap® Topographic layer, the OS Integrated Transport Network (ITN) layer, OS VectorMap Local, Code-Point and the points of interest dataset Point X.


Existing Data Licences

Any existing Ordnance Survey Direct Data Licences can be renewed with one of their Licensed Partners when they expire.


Why choose Centremaps as your data supplier?


These changes will now enable you to get a competitively priced quotation for OS Digital Data for all of your projects regardless of their size, with licensing that is flexible enough to cover your internal and external business use of that data.                  


New Licensing

At Centremaps we understand that the old licences have not been easy to understand and manage which is why we have developed the licence and project cost tools on the customer account area of our mapping site. The key features of our licence management tool include highlighting a duplicated data order area prior to purchase  and highlighting when an existing data licence is due to expire.    


New Pricing     
 
You can download all of your OS Data directly from our order interface at ww.centremapslive.com with no minimum order value and at prices which are lower than those currently available at Ordnance Survey Direct.

New Products

Centremaps can  be your point of contact for the supply of all Ordnance Survey products as well as our current ranges of aerial imagery, height data, historical mapping, environmental and coal reports, geology, UKMap, 3D digital and physical models, underground utility searches, land and measured building surveys, drainage and underground services surveys.


Existing Data Licences

If you are holding existing Data Licences you will have received formal written notification of these policy changes from Ordnance Survey and you can now renew these licences with Centremaps when they expire. Contact us when you receive the licence renewal reminder from Ordnance Survey and we can provide prices for the data renewal and any future mapping requirements.

 
Added Value Services

Added-value - we are land surveyors and can provide quotations to carry out the complete range of survey services including topographical and measured building surveys, underground services surveys, ground penetrating radar, drainage connectivity and cctv drainage surveys.


We would like the opportunity to provide you with pricing for both your data products and also for the 'added-value' services that we supply.  We can be your point of contact for all of your mapping and survey requirements which would enable you to manage all of your company data from one location - www.centremapslive.com

 
We would be very pleased to discuss your mapping requirements and how we can help you to benefit from the changes at Ordnance Survey.  To contact us please either -
