The dataset is structured into both geographic areas and thematic layers. The Great Britain dataset is divided into 100km by 100km tiles based on the National Grid. The data for each geographic area is stored in layers or themes. Each layer contains point, line or area data representing a group of map features. There is an additional layer containing textual annotation which is itself divided into sub-categories.
All layers are independently selectable.
