What OS Islands Address provides you with

Address analysis

Use combined local authority addressing data to analyse address classification, postal status, and construction status with Royal Mail delivery point address information.

Accuracy and currency

Maintain accurate address information with updates made as frequently as daily, to conduct spatial analysis and aggregation with precise coordinates assigned to each address.

UPRN data management

Link data to an address using the Unique Property Reference Number (UPRN). This identifier is assigned to a property and persists through its full lifecycle. From construction through to its demolition, the UPRN ensures accurate and consistent management of data, even when changes are made to an address.

UK addressing

Access consolidated data from Northern Ireland and the crown dependencies from one source, reducing time spent acquiring Islands address data from individual providers.

Use cases

  • An ideal choice for the planning, development, and management of property, whether you’re involved in policy development, logistics, or insurance underwriting.
  • Adopt the UPRN for the purposes of address data matching and cleansing. Accurate locations can inform decision making, such as analysing a property’s access to critical services like travel connections and healthcare.

Additional information

This data is generated from the National Geographic Database

The National Geographic Database (NGD) sets the benchmark in accuracy and completeness for location data. NGD data helps businesses and government make critical decisions, and deliver vital services with the utmost confidence and certainty.

The NGD is the single store of Ordnance Survey’s authoritative data for Great Britain; the repository of millions of records that precisely define the built and natural environment, in unparalleled detail.

Central to the power of NGD data is a single, structured database. Unlike previous generations of OS data, NGD data is built for analytical uses and designed to be the bedrock of more intelligent solutions. It reduces the complexity towards insight and getting the answers you need.
