Don't forget that if local Archaeological Societies have the support
of their Parish Council, then the Parish Council can let them have
OS data via an End User Licence.<br>
<br>
Not many will know or understand the issues, but it can be done -
obviously also the same applies to Principal Councils ...<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hi folks<br>
<br>
Re schools and gis - we've done a lot of research on the needs
of schools for the curriculum re GIS and mapping and have some
good contacts. In addition to our Digimap for Schools
service, we also have a WMS of the Ordnance Survey data we use
called MapStream. This is a paid for WMS and the intention is
to promote it in schools to use with open source GIS to help
provide a low cost solution to schools who want to start using
desktop GIS (primarily) but still need the non open OS data.
Part of the promotion would also be the inclusion of open data
services to add value and richness.<br>
<br>
It's early days for us on this, as we've had to focus our
energies on the Digimap for Schools service. But we will be
ramping up the effort on MapStream in early 2012, so any
support and advice from OS Geo UK would be a big help. Myself
and Peter Wells have already had a couple of chats round this,
so have some ideas floating around on what we can do to help
support schools wanting to go down this route.....<br>
<br>
cheers<br>

Hello,<br>
<br>
I had a query about the options for GI software for a
secondary<br>
school. I know esri uk have set up a website to highlight
their<br>
software. I wondered if there is anything simple that
covers open<br>
source GIS?<br>
<br>
The no cost of software is obviously better than ESRI but
both open<br>
source GIS and Open Street Map can come across as a bit
techy.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Stu<br>
