One zip file of sample data is provided per OS NGD collection. Within each of these zip files, the individual feature types for each collection are separated into their own folder.

Sample data always use the latest data schema version available for each collection.

Standard sample data areas

The sample data for each OS NGD collection typically cover three 5km x 5km areas in Great Britain: Exeter (England), Newport (Wales), and Inverness (Scotland).

Exceptions to standard sample data areas

  • Please note that sample data are not available for the OS NGD Islands Address Collection or OS NGD Boundaries Collection.

  • Transport Network Collection sample data are available for Sheffield, Newport and Inverness; there are no sample data for Exeter.

  • Water Features Collection sample data are available for Plymouth, Newport and Inverness; there are no sample data for Exeter.

Please note that as we are publishing three 5km x 5km sample data areas for most of the OS NGD collections, a small number of feature types are not represented within these areas and therefore their record counts will be zero:

  • Landform Point (OS NGD Land Features Collection)

  • Maintenance Point (OS NGD RAMI Collection)

  • Railway Link Set (OS NGD Transport Network Collection)
