Press Office
The partnership will enable Sensat to simplify and improve decision-making capabilities across various sectors, including energy, water, rail, highways, real estate, and telecoms. This will redefine the standards of data utilisation and application for UK infrastructure, by enabling stakeholders to navigate, analyse, and employ comprehensive datasets with ease and efficiency previously unseen in the industry.
OS data and mapping will be uploaded and used as a base layer for infrastructure teams to layer their Computer Aided Design models and designs over. This is set to help Sensat’s customers access enhanced accuracy for their planning. The process will also help infrastructure project managers and planning teams anticipate constraints in projects earlier, to reduce waste in the sector and boost sustainability.
Sensat supports over 50 Tier 1 infrastructure companies globally, including customers such as the National Grid – supporting the early stage planning and delivery of new and existing infrastructure as part of their ‘Great Grid Upgrade.' Civil infrastructure is already primarily coordinated using OS data thanks to its accuracy and reliability. By bringing OS data into Sensat, teams will be able to more confidently plan infrastructure, enabling precise, informed decisions for projects of any scale.
Gemma Jack, Channel Sales Executive at OS, said:
“We are delighted to have Sensat Digital join us as an OS Licensed Partner, and I am looking forward to working with the team on ways in which they can use OS datasets to enhance their products and services, and add real value for Sensat customers.
“With mutual ambitions to make a difference in our environment and sustainability commitments, OS and Sensat Digital are well aligned and we are excited to see the ongoing results of our newly formed partnership.”
