OS AddressBase Islands
Complete addressing for the United Kingdom and beyond
AddressBase Islands delivers the detail for Northern Ireland, Isle of Man and the Channel Islands which you find in AddressBase Plus and AddressBase Premium. It delivers an extra 1 million address records, complete with the UPRN, outside of Great Britain.
OS AddressBase Islands
AddressBase Islands contains current properties using addresses sourced from Local Authorities, Ordnance Survey and Royal Mail for Northern Ireland, Channel Islands and the Isle of Man. The product currently contains approximately 1 million records and is available on a six week update cycle.
OS AddressBase Premium Islands includes full address life cycle information, including current addresses, provisional addresses (proposed planning developments), and historic information (demolished properties) where available.
Data enrichment with UPRN
OS AddressBase Islands can be used in any application which requires the precise location of an address in Northern Ireland, Channel Islands or Isle of Man. It can also be used to enrich records in your data with the Unique Property Reference Number (UPRN). UPRNs allows different databases to be connected based on a unique frame of reference – location.
Adding the UPRN to databases can help make deeper sense of data once it’s all linked together. Every property in Northern Ireland, Channel Islands and Isle of Man has a UPRN, and OS AddressBase Islands adds a precise location. This accurate and consistent reference system links people across multiple services, enabling data analytics and unlocking predictive insights that can underpin policy making.

OS AddressBase Islands offers a valuable range of benefits to your organisation:
- Reduces the effort of maintaining address information across multiple departments
- Facilitates data-sharing between multiple organisations and departmental systems
