Abstract
A highly-detailed, customisable, street-level base map, OS VectorMap Local shows fences, building outlines, paths and street names, for the accurate lie of the land.
A simple vector dataset at a nominal scale of 1:10000 covering the whole of Great Britain designed for creating graphical mapping. The product can be used as mapping in its own right or can be used to provide a flexible geographic backdrop for customers’ overlay information.
As well as the vector dataset, a number of output styles are suggested. The main characteristic of the dataset is representation of real world features (e.g. roads, railways, buildings, vegetation, boundaries and urban extents) as points, lines, polygons, and text.
