Large scale maps

Ideal for for planning applications, HIPs, conveyancing and more

In order to support your planning application, or in some cases as part of a Home information pack (HIP), you will need to provide a location plan. Your local authority's planning office can advise you on how detailed this should be. They will express this as a map scale; this will be 1:2500, 1:1250 or sometimes 1:500.

Whether you are a private individual or a commercial developer, OS Sitemap^® will enable you to fulfil this requirement. It clearly shows the outlines of buildings and roads. When you order it, you can specify exactly where the centre of the map should be, so you only pay for what you need.

OS Sitemap is available on paper, which is ideal for domestic planning applications. Business users may prefer data files that can be opened in computer-aided design (CAD) software.

OS Sitemap is supplied exclusively by our nationwide network of Ordnance Survey Mapping and Data Centres. Some of them operate websites from which you can order OS Sitemap online.

If you call in person, they can often supply paper plots or data files while you wait; they are also happy to take orders by phone, email and online, in some cases. Data files can also be sent to you by email.
