Please note:

• The Full Supply record counts are based on a Managed Great Britain Set (MGBS). If you have ordered your national coverage via the online ordering system using a polygon outline, then your counts may differ.

• Change-Only Updates (COUs) are not available for the OS Open UPRN product.

Product supply comparison

There is a difference in product counts between taking a national Managed Great Britain Set (MGBS) and a national Area of Interest (AOI). This is because the two supplies use different selection criteria. The differences are shown in the following table, allowing for you to validate your data holdings once you have loaded the latest release of AddressBase data.

The national AOI refers to the pre-selection GB polygon from our download store. Therefore, if you have drawn your own AOI, the count will vary.

If you are unsure of your supply type, please check this with your OS Relationship Manager.

It's important that COUs are processed with Deletes first, then Inserts and Updates. This is to ensure that updates are applied in the correct order. Further guidance on this can be found in 'Working with COU data' in the AddressBase Getting Started Guide.
