Anquet Map Prices Explained


Anquet map prices are firmly based around charging for exactly the mapping contained within a product. All map prices are determined first by the map type (e.g. OS 1:25,000 Explorer series or A to Z) and then by area of land coverage in square kilometres. The results we believe arekeen fair prices for all of our users on all of our products. Whether you wish to purchase pre-defined products or define a map yourself, the pricing will be exactly the same.

Disks and Favourite Bundles

A predefined product contains mapping for predefined areas. For example it may be the Lake District in OS 125:000 Explorer series mapping or London in A to Z mapping. As just about all predefined products contain different amounts of mapping, this does result in the products within a series having different prices. For instance our OS 1:50,000 Regional series now range in price from £10 to £14.89 because the areas range from 18,395 sq km to 28,951 sq km.  There are over 1,000 predefined products to choose from. You can see the full range of predefined products here listed by series.

Download Price and Disk Price

For each product you will see 2 prices: the "download price" and the "disk price". The download price is the price to download the map directly to your computer. The disk price is the price to have the map product provided on disk. It is more expensive to have your map products provided on disk because there is a cost to producing the disk and sending it to you. Please see below.

Maps on Disk

If you have a slower internet connection, are buying a gift or just prefer a physical product you can buy predefined areas of mapping on disk. We create all our disks to order rather than in bulk because it's less wasteful and ensures our customers always get thelatest map data and softwarefrom our ever expanding catalogue of product. We charge an additional £5 per disk for disk production plus postage and packaging. Most predefined maps areas fit onto one disk so typically it cost £5 extra plus postage and packaging to have your predefined product sent to you on disk.

Cut Your Own

You don't have to stick to our predefined map areas. If you prefer, you can cut your own map. The prices per square kilometre are the same as with the predefined maps but cutting your own means you buy exactly the mapping you need so it can be better value.

Volume Discounts

Whether you define your own map or buy a predefined product, the prices per square kilometre of mapping reduce for larger areas. In other words, bigger areas of mapping are comparatively better value for money.
