At Rotherham we have digital OS maps available on a public workstation in
our
reading room. The viewing software is PlanChest which runs in conjunction
with
MapInfo. The current 25 in and 1:10,000 digital mapping is obtained through
our
Planning Dept. as part of the Council's OS subscription. We print out A4
extracts for the public under the same copyright restrictions as apply to
paper
maps. The Council has also purchased the historic 25 in mapping from
Landmark
and we also have this available on the workstation. The digital mapping,
both
current and historical, is also available to staff through the Council's
Intranet site.
