OS MasterMap Managed GB sets

What is the Managed GB Sets service?

The Managed GB Sets service is a way of processing identical orders faster, which improves delivery times. If you subscribe to this service you will automatically receive your updates (full supply or change-only updates (COU)) on CD or DVD, either quarterly or every six weeks.

You will also benefit from:

  • Data arriving faster and in a more predictable manner.
  • Seeing the same version of features as other organisations.
  • Easier data management - no need to remember to order change regularly or enter change 'since date'.

Who is eligible for the service?

You are eligible if you hold a contract for full GB coverage of OS MasterMap® Topography, Address or Integrated Transport Network (ITN) Layers. You can subscribe immediately through your account manager or by contacting digitalsalesenquiries@ordnancesurvey.co.uk.
