Anyone have access to OS maps?

[21TonyK]

I need a specific ranger style map extract. Essentially a square mile showing detailed contours which I can print A3 for my daughter to produce a scale topographical model. It's on the OS site at a subscription cost. Just wondering if anyone can access for poor A level student?

You can access OS data on Bing maps - try there

I can print 1:50000 off at work for free - where is it you need? Location in lat/long preferred... Can do imagery too if you need.

You'll need to be quick though - I'm only in work tomorrow before going 'away' for a bit. It'll cost you a donation to the Poppy Appeal.

OS maps here: http://www.sabre-roads.org.uk/maps/

Select OS and zoom in until you get the right scale

Your daughter may already have access through her school on http://digimapforschools.edina.ac.uk/ or http://digimap.edina.ac.uk/webhelp/digimapsupport/...

Lots of good advice on here, if all else fails - Contact the geography department of your nearest university, they always like to help out with stuff like this - especially if it's to help a sixth former (their future 'customers' at the end of the day!)

If you buy the paper copy of the map you want, the newest editions come with a free download voucher for the area it covers. Might be worth a punt for a one off 7 quid rather than having to pay a subscription if the ideas above aren't suitable?
