OS OpenSpace Pro (withdrawn)

OS OpenSpace Pro has been withdrawn and superseded by the OS Maps API.

Overview

OS Maps API has similar functionality plus more, including OS MasterMap Topography Layer, under the Premium Plan.

Sign up on the OS Data Hub. Our new APIs have been de-coupled from OpenLayers so they can now be used with any software or web mapping library including QGIS, ESRI, Mapbox, Leaflet or indeed OpenLayers.

The new Public Sector Geospatial Agreement (PSGA) signals the start of a new journey for OS data with changes to the data we collect, how to access it, and how you can share information with others. As part of this we’re rationalising our suite of APIs and introducing some new ones, all accessible from our new data access platform, the OS Data Hub

New APIs

New APIs

OS OpenSpace Pro is built on top of OpenLayers 2.12, which is now 8 years old. We want to decouple this dependency so you can use our maps with any mapping library or GIS software. With our new APIs you can integrate our maps with modern mapping software, and we have examples to help you get started.

On the OS Data Hub, you can sign up to a Premium plan for OS Maps API and benefit from £1,000 of free premium data every month. This gives you free access to even more mapping for your apps, including OS MasterMap Topography Layer.

Signing up to the OS Data Hub will also give you access to OS Vector Tile API (a Vector Tile Service) and OS Features API (a Web Feature Service), plus loads more.
