File naming

GML file naming

The file naming for the OS MasterMap Highways Network GML will be constructed as Highways_ProductName_FeatureType_SupplyType_NullorDelete_volumenumber.gml.gz, where:

  • Highways identifies that the GML is from the OS MasterMap Highways Network product family.

  • ProductName is the name of the product that is being supplied, for example, Roads.

  • FeatureType is the name of the feature type that is being supplied in the GML file, for example, Road Link.

  • SupplyType is the type of supply the GML is, for example, Full Supply or COU.

  • NullorDelete will not be present in any GML file names if the GML forms part of a Full Supply. If the GML forms part of a COU supply, then Delete will identify if the file contains all the features which need removing from the customer holding as a part of the COU application.

  • volumenumber will be the volume number for the file, which will be three digits, and the first volume will be 001.

Examples of the GML file names:

  • Highways_Roads_RoadLink_Full_001.gml.gz

  • Highways_RoadsAndRAM_AccessRestriction_Full_001.gml.gz

  • Highways_Paths_Maintenance_Full_001.gml.gz

  • Highways_Roads_RoadNode_COU_001.gml.gz

  • Highways_Roads_RoadNode_COU_Delete_001.gml.gz

  • Highways_RoadsAndRAM_RoadLink_COU_001.gml.gz

  • Highways_RoadsAndRAM_RoadLink_COU_Delete_001.gml.gz

  • Highways_Paths_PathLink_COU_001.gml.gz

  • Highways_Paths_PathLink_COU_Delete_001.gml.gz

  • OSMasterMapHighwaysNetworkPath_gb.gpkg

  • OSMasterMapHighwaysNetworkRAMI_gb.gpkg
