What OS Transport Network provides you with
Rail, tram and ferry networks
Visualise and interrogate rail, tram and ferry networks across Great Britain and the connectivity between them for passengers or freight.
Street lighting
Visualise the location of street lights and identify their nearest Road Link or Path Link using the Street Light Feature Type. Useful for conducting road safety analysis, and identifying gaps in street lighting that might be acting as barriers to creating safe well-lit active travel routes.
Use cases
- Suitable for identifying and planning new transport routes, including connections for passengers and freight, and assessing the environmental impact of travel.
- Create statistics for evidence-based policy making, such as school transport allocation, funding distribution, and meeting sustainable transport policies.
- Use street lighting data to identify poorly lit areas, and support planning safe routes for active travel, such as home-to-school routing.
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.
