The new National Map Centre website –
www.mapsnmc.co.uk – has now been completely refreshed and features an online
mapping system provided by FIND. Through the site customers can register and
instantly download Ordnance Survey map data and create plot ‘prints’ used for a
variety of planning purposes, as well as annotate maps with a range of
easy-to-use tools.
National
Map Centre provides mapping services, in addition to its website, at its own
centres and through an extensive network of partners throughout Britain. FIND’s
mapping system will be used at both over-the-counter service and through the
NMC website.

Julie Cleary, Manager of National Map
Centre, commented: “FIND’s system has significantly streamlined the process of
ordering data for our clients. We are able to offer a whole new range of
products, like aerial imagery, and we really look forward to expanding our
offerings in future.”
SuiWin Hui, Head of Consultancy at
FIND, said: “Working closely with the NMC we’ve developed and delivered a
mapping system that works for them and for their clients. We’ve also ensured
that the system has the capacity to grow as the NMC expands its range”.
Simon Lewis, Managing Director of FIND,
commented: "FIND is all about delivering solutions for users of complex
spatial data. It’s been extremely satisfying to work with the NMC and provide
the engine for their new site. But our technology delivers much more than an
upgrade for the NMC’s website it’s the foundation for a long-term relationship
from which both companies will undoubtedly benefit."
