Different members of staff will each need to register to obtain their own MapPilot passwords. Teachers and other school staff may allow other users (such as pupils in class) to use of the Ordnance Survey maps and data under their direct and personal supervision. It is important that individual password holders never divulge their password to any of their supervised users. All usage is tracked to individual passwords and Authorised Users remain responsible for data obtained via their passwords.

Yes. Clause 3.1.11 states that you may use the maps and data as part of a presentation at a seminar, conference, or workshop or other similar activity. Remember, however, that you must be an Authorised User and that you cannot give the data to a third party for any reason or leave the data behind in any form.

The permitted use of the data and maps from Digimap are described in the Terms of Use for the service, and in the Frequently Asked Questions on the Sub-Licence Agreement. Each user must read the Terms of Use for Digimap when they register. These and the Frequently Asked Questions on the Sub-Licence Agreement can be viewed from any point within the service. Institutions will need to make separate licensing arrangements with Ordnance Survey for activities not covered by the Digimap service.

Yes, but only if all the course attendees are Authorised Users. The status of Continuing Education students varies between institutions. You should check the rules which apply to you.

Unlike in England and Wales, there is no 'definitive map' of rights of way in Scotland, and as a result they have not been marked on Ordnance Survey maps.

You can publish maps taken from Digimap or created by you in a variety of publications. Clause 3.1.7 states that you may incorporate maps in printed and electronic versions of conference papers, articles, articles published in a journal publication and poster sessions. Clause 3.1.14 states that you may publish maps on your institution's website as part of a course or project. There are limits on the size of maps you can publish.

Ordnance Survey is the foremost supplier of geographic data in the UK, providing products and services that underpin over £100-billion worth of business within Great Britain. We have an order and supply process that allows us to dispatch, on average a large volume of orders every week.

The following products are available through Digimap. 100% of national coverage is available for all the products: Strategi®: (1:250,000) "road atlas" scale mapping, showing major settlements, roads, railways and land use; MeridianTM2: (1:50,000) comprehensive road and railway networks, land use areas, boundaries and place names; Land-Line.

Under the terms of the Pilot NHS (England) Agreement, fees for most members are paid centrally by The IC. For further information on either payment requirements or the agreement, please contact the Information Centre directly by e-mailing the IC Helpdesk or phoning them on 0845 300 6016 (lines open 9am – 5pm, Mon – Fri).

OS Net is currently used by 130 of our surveyors to collect field data for the production of our various mapping products. The use of GPS has meant significant changes to the way we collect data and has enabled cost savings over time.

Our plan is that in due course we will upgrade the OS Net base-station network to receive both GPS and Galileo signals. Some OS Net services are ‘free to air’ through the GPS website. Will this continue now that commercial services are available. Yes. A free service for post-process applications will be maintained (using readings every 30 seconds) and this will continue to be available on our web site. Partners will provide higher update rate readings where they are required.

The scientific stations have antenna monuments that are effectively fixed to solid rock or stable structures and data recorded there are suitable for high accuracy long term monitoring applications such as ocean tide loading and vertical land movement research. Some formerly scientific stations, Barking and Camborne for example, are now operated by the OSGB.

Other Ordnance Survey products may be added in future years, although this is entirely at the discretion of JISC and Ordnance Survey. However, Digimap is a delivery mechanism to which many other datasets can be added. If there are particular datasets you would like to see available through Digimap, please contact EDINA (edina@ed.ac.uk).

Restrictions on the use of the surveys are outlined in the End User Licence that all users agree to when registering with the ESDS. In particular there is a fundamental restriction on the confidentiality of data. Users should not attempt to use the data to deliberately compromise the confidentiality of individuals or households and are required to abide by the current Data Protection Act. This agreement also covers requirements for citation of publications and safeguarding of data.

Persons and institutions in both the public and private sectors extensively use these survey data. Accurate data regarding business ownership are critical to informed decision making by Federal, state, and local governments regarding business assistance programs. In addition, private companies and trade associations use the data to analyze industry trends; educators use them in teaching and research; and the media use them in news articles.

Teachers are allowed to access the MapPilot Ordnance Survey maps and data online from anywhere for the purposes of preparation for class teaching, subject to the following conditions: o The maps and data may not be issued to or used by anyone who is not an Authorised User. This means that if your computer facilities are shared with others (for example family members) the Ordnance Survey maps and data must not be accessible to, or used by them.

Pupils may access MapPilot maps at home via a school on-line system, provided the data is embedded and cannot be separately extracted from the product or service. Pupils may print out copies of maps.

The type of map you need depends on what you plan to do on Islay: If you only plan to visit the distilleries and other major tourist attractions, any decent road map or tourist map should be sufficient. If you plan to go walking you need something better: For an easy walk the Islay (Landranger Maps) (1:50,000 scale) should be sufficient.

part of the Agreement, there is some technical support available from Ordnance Survey to assist participants with the use of our data. In the first instance, please email the NHS Helpdesk with your request. They will pass it on to one of our data consultants if they are not able to answer the question.
