Map features



  Ordnance Survey GB: schools can see OS 1:10,000 maps of their Grid area and 1:50,000 maps of ALL participating Grids.


  Historic maps: in addition to the historic map samples, schools in many Authorities can see local historical mapping.


  Aerial photographs: all uLearn users have access to 2 metre aerial photographs for the whole of England and Wales. Many authorities also have access to 25cm aerial imagery.


  European and world maps: uLearn provides access to street level mapping for the whole of Europe.


  Map manipulation tools include fade, stitch, mirror, layer, pan and zoom.


  Create Playlists of the most relevant maps and resources so that your pupils can access them quickly and easily. 


  'Here is my school' functionality enables schools to add a button to their public website, displaying the school and its location on both Ordnance Survey and aerial maps.


  Use uLearn's maps and aerial photography to create eye-catching presentations for events such as open days, assemblies and parents evenings.


  Upload your own resources - link pictures, videos and annotations to your maps.


  Grid references and drag-and-drop OS icons help students to interpret Ordnance Survey data, a key skill in Geography. Simply type a Grid Reference into the search box and jump directly to that location. In addition, location data is constantly displayed at the bottom of the map screen.


  Measure distances on the map using uLearn's many tools. Use the ruler or draw a line to measure the distance. Draw a polygon to display the size of areas as small as a playing field or as large as a country!
