This provides business opportunities for new product and services.<\/p>\n<p>The National Polygon Service includes three datasets.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"national-polygon-dataset\">National Polygon dataset<\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/national-polygon-service\/#national-polygon-dataset\">National Polygon dataset<\/a>  is one of our largest and most popular datasets. With information on more than 24 million titles and 28 million polygons, it covers all registered titles (freehold and leasehold) in England and Wales and shows the indicative shape and position of each boundary. <\/p>\n<h3 id=\"title-descriptor-dataset\">Title Descriptor dataset<\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/national-polygon-service\/#title-descriptor-dataset\">Title Descriptor dataset<\/a> provides a freehold and\/or leasehold label against each title and then you can view the \u2018Class of Title\u2019 and \u2018Estates and Interests in land\u2019 information. This dataset is currently only available as part of the National Polygon Service. <\/p>\n<h3 id=\"title-number-and-unique-property-reference-number-uprn-look-up-dataset\">Title Number and Unique Property Reference Number (<abbr title=\"Unique Property Reference Number\">UPRN<\/abbr>) Look Up dataset<\/h3>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/national-polygon-service\/#title-number-and-uprn-look-up-dataset\">Title Number and <abbr title=\"Unique Property Reference Number\">UPRN<\/abbr> Look Up dataset<\/a> is associated with each title number, where it can be matched. UPRNs are a unique twelve digit number assigned to every unit of land and property recorded by local government. They were created by GeoPlace, as a joint venture between the Local Government Group and Ordnance Survey. When cross-referenced with title numbers these provide a way of matching files with merged data from other government agencies.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"more-information\">More information<\/h2>\n<p>We will continue to use your feedback to develop the dataset attributes, delivery options and update frequency.  <\/p>\n<p>For more information about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/national-polygon-service\">National Polygon Service<\/a> or the licensing terms and conditions email the <a href=\"mailto:datapublication@landregistry.gsi.gov.uk\">Business Development Fulfilment Team<\/a> or call 0300 006 0492.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following extensive work with our customers and stakeholders, we are releasing our National Polygon and Title Descriptor datasets today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64057"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=64057"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64057\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=64057"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=64057"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=64057"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
