What OS Select+Build provides you with
Easier access to data
For the first time, you can select and build your own data package/s rather than taking off-the shelf OS products. You can take data from different OS NGD collections to build your own recipe of data to produce bespoke data package/s.
Enhanced features
You can now select what you need e.g. Building Line and Building Part Feature Types (which are both in the Buildings Features Collection of the Buildings Theme) and the Structure Line Feature Type (which is in the Structure Features Collection of the Structures Theme) to build your own recipe and data package/s.
