The following table details the OS NGD datasets that were used to create the OS NGD API – Tiles basemap. The result is a detailed OS basemap that combines OS Open Zoomstack and OS NGD data.
Find out more about the hierarchy of OS NGD data here.
The following table details the OS NGD datasets that can be used as overlays to the basemap to add additional information:
The following attribution is available as part of OS NGD API – Tiles:
The map features do not contain every OS NGD feature type, nor the complete list of attribution available within the feature types that are included; we have purposefully only selected feature types and a subset of attribution from them that are useful for visualisation as this keeps the tiles lightweight and quick to render.
The inclusion of unique identifiers (IDs), where available, allows you to cross-reference with the full product, for example, with OS NGD API – Features. Find out more about OS NGD Unique identifiers.
Although OS NGD API – Tiles will be updated weekly, the data updates are based on the set currency of the OS NGD collections (for example, the Structure Features Collection currency is daily, whereas the Water Network Collection currency is monthly).
