Today, at an event for Licensed Partners, Ordnance Survey is revealing its new pricing and licensing model, which aims to enable greater access to its products and geographic datasets under a simplified structure. Among the changes to be presented is the introduction of terms to allow partner businesses to licence and resell almost all Ordnance Survey products, including its flagship dataset, OS MasterMap Topography Layer. According to the OS, there will now be fewer, broader licences covering commercial activities. Perhaps the most discussed issue surrounding the use of Ordnance Survey data in recent years, has been the use of so-called ‘derived data’ – where customers create features or attributes with direct reference to the underlying Ordnance Survey data.
