Ordnance Survey
The map products supplied by the Ordnance Survey (OS) play a critical role in the process of Land Registration in Scotland because Part 1, Section 11 (The cadastral map) of the Land Registration etc. (Scotland) Act 2012 states that:
(5) The cadastral map must be based upon the base map.
(6) The base map is -
(a) the Ordnance Map
(b) another system of mapping, being a system which accords with such requirements as the Scottish Ministers may, by order, prescribe, or
(c) a combination of the Ordnance Map and such other system.
