What OS MasterMap Highways Network - Routing and Asset Management provides you with

Enables improved planning

Our asset management information allows highways teams to improve planning schemes in the office, avoiding unnecessary site visits. It can also identify potentially difficult locations, so you can organise required permits in good time.

One instant view

All the details at your fingertips. If a water leak is reported, use the data to find the property, street and nearest hydrant and assess impact on nearby properties, while determining the risk to other assets.

Detailed turn information

Go beyond just the restrictions with detailed information about narrow roads and pinch points. Join up your organisation's common reference to roads and help make informed decisions around the road quickly and effectively.

Comprehensive and authoritative

OS MasterMap Highways Network - Routing & Asset Management Information includes our highly accurate road network geometry and associated routing restriction information for detailed route planning and network analysis.
