From pipe dream to reality! How OS has created a data powerhouse.
Today - and the future
OS is no longer a centuries-old mapping company today it is a supersize data powerhouse. Their location data, or geographic information has woven itself into the very fabric of everyday life, right across Great Britain often far beyond our shores.
Donna Lyndsay, Sustainability Lead at Ordnance Survey, analyses how location and earth observation data can be combined to better understand how our planet is changing, and develop potential solutions.
"There is a large and growing relationship between location and earth observation data. Both are relied on to collect and disseminate environmental information."
"But when combined, we get a powerful picture of the changes happening in our environment. From tracking heat waves to coastal erosion, and reporting pollution to habitat restoration, we’re able to analyse the Earth's surface in a way that helps us improve the effectiveness of environmental programs."
