What is OS OpenSpace?
OS OpenSpace is a JavaScript Application Programming Interface (API) that uses ‘slippy map’ technology, letting you dynamically pan the map by grabbing and sliding the image in any direction you like. OS OpenSpace allows you to build Web 2.0 applications using Ordnance Survey data. Grow your idea into something amazing and enhance your application using read-in data from the Web. Use the best mapping data available: take advantage of Ordnance Survey street level mapping and our highly detailed data. Show the world what you can do. Use OS OpenSpace to interact, collaborate and share your ideas with other developers. Generate your own geographic content and become part of the community. What you can do: OS OpenSpace allows you to add markers, lines and polygons on top of Ordnance Survey maps, and also search for place names with our gazetteer. OS OpenSpace allows you up to 30 000 tiles of data per day and up to 1 000 place name look-ups. The API is for non-commercial use only.” Several p
