Cadcorp helps organisations derive meaningful and actionable intelligence from data.

We do this with an extensive range of spatial data, software and services designed to better inform decision-making. With our technical knowledge and expertise, we know how to support our customers in realising the benefits of location information.

Cadcorp’s flagship suite of GIS and web mapping software, Cadcorp Spatial Information System® (SIS), addresses all phases of spatial information management and is available worldwide through a network of Cadcorp partners and through direct sales in the UK and Ireland. Since 1995, Cadcorp has been helping organisations maximise their return on investment in geographic information by making it easier to share and distribute spatial data between people and between systems. This is achieved by developing geospatial products that incorporate open and standards-based technologies.

The Cadcorp SIS® product family includes applications for desktop and web environments together with comprehensive tools for GIS developers and systems integrators. Cadcorp has supported Ordnance Survey data for almost 30 years, as part of the Cadcorp SIS core product portfolio. Wherever possible this data is read out-of-the-box, without translation, or pre-processing and national datasets are displayed instantly.

How they can help you

If you require spatial data, software or services, Cadcorp can help.

Cadcorp partners with data suppliers to licence a wide range of spatial data. This incorporates all Ordnance Survey products, including OS MasterMap. Data can be provided in popular GIS formats and as cloud hosted web services.

Cadcorp develops GIS and web mapping products that incorporate open and standards-based technologies that have a high level of versatility. Cadcorp SIS products are available for all phases of spatial data management from creation, through to application development, deployment and data distribution.  

Cadcorp software aims to support all the wide variety of Ordnance Survey data products, in all the wide variety of data supply formats, in as simple and effective a way as possible. Solutions include:

  • Providing software to analyse, manipulate, display and use Ordnance Survey data. This includes multi-user and multi-vendor data support through an OGC® compliant web map server, and associated applications.
  • Geocoding, using up-to-date property and street databases in Cadcorp SIS. This enables searching based on Unique Property Reference Numbers and Unique Street Reference Numbers. These search local databases, built using data downloaded from the OS Data Hub Downloads API. Updated databases are issued every month and Cadcorp users can download these for the most up-to-date searches. Customers can geocode place names and locations directly against the OS Data Hub Names API, as well as add their own new postcode units, or edit the locations of existing units, in order to keep up with local changes.
  • Cadcorp cloud data services include both hosted map and business data. The Cadcorp OS MasterMap Topographic Vector Service gives quick and easy access to the latest vector OS MasterMap Topography Layer. The Cadcorp Data Service is a managed service that provides direct access to a wide range of open data, including Ordnance Survey, directly from a secure Cadcorp datastore. Cadcorp services are designed to guide and support the organisation’s geospatial strategy. These can range from spatial data updates to cloud hosted managed services, from quality assurance to complex modelling projects.

Cadcorp provides spatial insight to sectors including emergency services, energy and infrastructure, environment, finance, government and land and property.

Cadcorp SIS is suitable for all sizes of organisations. Investment level can vary as Cadcorp offers a wide range of software and services, ranging from a free desktop GIS viewer to an enterprise-wide GIS and web mapping system.

Impact

GIS and business analytics are a powerful tool to understand public health services and provide insight into the distribution of resources. From routing analysis for facilitating emergency response and patient travel, to combining population and demographic data to identify service gaps, Cadcorp has worked with Ordnance Survey data to create solutions that allow organisations to improve their services and optimise operations.

"Cadcorp software is easy to use and can be integrated with a wide range of data sources."
