Open Space - Ordnance Survey on the web

Steve Coast (OpenStreetMap), Ian Holt (Ordnance Survey)

Ordnance Survey – Britain’s National Mapping Agency – has launched OpenSpace, a mapping API pushing OS’s unique cartography in to the hands of geohackers everywhere. Based on OpenLayers and the Ordnance Survey’s hundreds of years experience in top-rate data collection and maps, OpenSpace is perhaps the best API for use in the UK.
