      OS VectorMap Local is designed, above all else, to give customers maximum flexibility, especially in terms of styling and scale. Given the file formats, and the software required to use them, OS VectorMap Local is primarily a product for business customers.

      OS VectorMap® Local allows you to create your own detailed backdrop maps. You can highlight and display specific features on the map as well as overlaying your own information, displaying exactly what you want. Please note that OS VectorMap products are currently only available in GIS compatible file formats such as ESRI shape file and MapInfo TAB. AutoCAD users could make use of the data but would first need to convert it into a CAD compatible format in AutoCAD Map 3D.

      • Features include roads, railways, vegetation, boundaries, urban extent and buildings.
      • Helps you make decisions by displaying only the information you need, how you need it.
      • Customisable to support your specific needs, such as colour deficiencies.
      • Ideal for Asset Management and Land Planning and use.
      • Display business information in a geographical context online.
