What OS Terrain 50 provides you with

Model wind direction and lines of sight
Make better decisions about where to locate wind turbines and mobile phone masts.
OS Terrain 50 lets you model wind direction and lines of sight at your desk, meaning fewer site visits.
Plan landscape defences
Get the bigger picture about flood risk, soil erosion and pollution. By showing steep hillside gradients, OS Terrain 50 helps you plan flood defences and safeguard the landscape.
More engaging maps
With the contours version of OS Terrain 50, you can shade in hills to show their height. This extra sense of depth is ideal for walking maps and apps.
Surface model entire landscapes
