The service includes:

• Seamless Ordnance Survey mapping covering all of Great Britain
• Historical 1-inch maps from the 1890s and 1950s with transparency sliders for comparing maps of different periods
• Over 60 step-by-step teaching resources
• A suite of annotation tools for GIS and mapping fieldwork results
• Print maps at A4/A3 and save work online or to your local system
• High resolution aerial imagery covering GB
• Extensive annotation tools
• Ability for students to interrogate, manipulate and save maps and upload fieldwork results from a CSV file
• Follow up support for staff development

A simple single login means that pupils can access maps anytime, anywhere via an easy to use web interface. For more information and prices for your establishment visit Digimap for Schools.
