Map Data
Parish Online contains a wealth of map datasets to help you with your council work
The Parish Online team keep a range of datasets from Government agencies and 3rd parties up-to-date, so you have all information in one place.
We can include map data from Local Authorities if they are willing and able to share it. This makes Parish Online even more useful to local councils.
Collaborative National Mapping Projects
We work on projects that bring together Local Councils and specialist organisations to help build better map datasets using Parish Online.

It's (usually) easy to get data from Local Authorities into Parish Online
1. Decide what datasets you need
Make a list of the datasets that your District, County or Borough hold and email them to ask for the 'GIS data' to share with Parish Online.
We say it's 'usually' easy, but in some cases you might find that your principle authority don't have the resources, staff, skills or inclination to share mapping information. Persist! We can give them all the tools they need to do it easily.

2. Pass those files over to us
Send them in a support ticket and we'll load them up. They'll need to cover the whole of the District or County, not just your parish area.
If you put us in touch with the person at the principle authority, we can give them a facility to update the information if a new version is available.

3. Log into your Parish Online account
Simply log into Parish Online and the new data layers will be in the Layer Control ready for you to switch on.
If you have any examples of how getting extra datasets from the principle authority has helped you, please let us know. It's great to hear and will persuade other authorities to do the same.
