Peel L&P has opted to consolidate its spatial data licensing requirements. This includes the supply of OS MasterMap® Topography Layer, 1:25K Raster, OS Terrain 5, OS VectorMap Local, and OS MasterMap Imagery. As part of the spatial data package, Peel L&P will be provided access to the cloud-hosted Data Service.
Peel L&P has been integrating Ordnance Survey data with the GIS and web mapping software, SIS, since 2004. SIS is used to support land redevelopment activities and distribute mapping to a range of Peel consultants, in the file formats they require.
Following recent changes to Ordnance Survey data licensing, Peel L&P was looking for a new supplier of Ordnance Survey data. Peel L&P awarded the contract to NEC (formerly Cadcorp). As a trusted geospatial data, software and services company, and long-standing Ordnance Survey partner, it met all of their requirements. Within a quick turnaround time, the company was able to license and supply like-for-like data, in its original formats, allowing Peel L&P to keep its integrated data processes unchanged. As part of the agreed Service Level Agreement, future data updates will be managed.
“We needed a supplier that was fluent in the full OS data suite and who also understood our geospatial requirements. We’ve successfully worked with Cadcorp for many years, and combining our data requirements with our GIS ensured a smooth transition.”
–Neil Thompson, GIS Manager, Peel L&P
