BPH Royalty Free Data

Code Point Lat/Long

In April 2010 following the government consultation on open data, Ordnance Survey released a subset of Code-Point® as Code-Point® Open under a royalty free licence.

BPH have produced a new version of our GIS Base Table + Lat/Lon based on the OS data which is not subject to any annual Royal Mail licence fees.

The main differences between the original GBLL table derived from Royal Mail Postzon® and the new Code-Point® CPLL version are;

The costs of this dataset are £170 for a single edition OR £425 for quarterly (4) editions per annum.

**NEW** - We can now supply a supplementary file for the BT postcode area in the same format as the Code Point Lat/Long file. There will be a small additional data charge of £50 for a single edition OR £125 for quarterly (4) editions, there are no Royal Mail licence fees for this additional data.

You can download a sample of the data (inc a file layout) on the right of this page. The "downloads" area also contains a sample of the LA/UA District and Ward descriptions file. Below is a screen shot of the data.
