Public sector organisations rely on OS’s world-leading data to deliver critical infrastructure and services across Britain
From blue lights to streetlights, delivering local services through town, parish and community councils and preparing for smart cities to building up environmental resilience, more than 5000 public sector organisations across Great Britain use our data for public good.
The Public Sector Geospatial Agreement (PSGA) provides the route for public sector bodies to access, use and share our constantly evolving location data, under the terms of these agreements.
The PSGA Member Licence provides free at the point of use access to the data, and is done so under the overarching contract between the Geospatial Commission, on behalf of the public sector in England, Wales, Scotland and Ordnance Survey.
You can log in if you’re already registered.
If your organisation isn't yet registered, you can register here.
