Online Annual Review 2005/6

Mapping

Land Registry has been working with Ordnance Survey (OS) to evaluate MasterMap. OS MasterMap is an intelligent digital map designed by Ordnance Survey for use with geographical information systems (GIS) and databases. Based on the National Grid, it includes topographic information on every landscape feature – buildings, roads, phone boxes, postboxes, landmarks – and represents a significant evolution from traditional cartography.

We continue to make progress on implementing the Geographic Information Strategy, to ensure that we capitalise on the benefits inherent in the migration to OS MasterMap and spatially enabled databases. This new data and systems infrastructure will allow us to increase the efficiency and quality of our core operational processes, while also providing an appropriate environment to support many of our core corporate objectives, such as the comprehensive Land Register, e-conveyancing and commercial services.
