A new product has been introduced by Getmapping called Aerial Insight, which is an online service that delivers Land Registry title plans, aerial photography and a composite of the two, within one day of purchase.

One of the most important documents required for the sale of any property in the UK is a Land Registry title plan which shows the extent of a property in the context of a map of the local area.

Aerial Insight is expected to be helpful to conveyancers, lenders and property portfolio managers. It is available from the Getmapping website, delivered by email as a layered PDF file.

Commenting on the new product, Tristram Cary, Getmapping’s MD, said the real value of Aerial Insight is that it can reveal the true nature of the area, in which the property is situated.

The image composite will reveal the nature and character of the property and its surroundings and more importantly provide conveyancing professionals with the ability to spot potential problems or legal issues, he added.

It will also prove useful to those marketing the property as buyers will be interested to know whether a property is in a leafy suburb, set in rural farmland or close to an industrial site, concluded Mr Cary.

Getmapping is a provider of aerial photography and digital mapping and was the first company to have up-to-date nationwide coverage and pioneered online delivery of aerial photography to business and the public and large.
