Can I view OS maps for the UK online for free?
I want to see both the Landranger and Explorer maps if possible.

You can get the OS map app as well which allows you to see maps and some free routes.– AravonaFeb 4, 2019 at 8:25

Wouldn't this be better suited on opendata.stackexchange.com ?– GabrielFeb 4, 2019 at 17:07

@Aravona I think you have to pay for the maps with the app, also I have had issues with that app, it's not very good.– MJHFeb 5, 2019 at 16:35

@Gabriel Hey, it's about maps, I posted it here so people know about it. I don't use the OpenData group, if you want to post it there feel free.– MJHFeb 5, 2019 at 16:37

@MJH - you can view where you are currently for free at any time, if you want to download maps and do most routes you need to have premium/buy the maps yes. The Free version won't track you but handy to open and see whats around you.– AravonaFeb 6, 2019 at 8:54

Yes, go to https://www.bing.com/maps/ and select "Ordnance Survey" in the drop-down in the top right corner.
The zoom level you select will show either the 1:50,000 or 1:25,000 map you will see.

@phg I just tried it out; you're correct. From Germany, I don't see the "Ordnance Survey" option unless I browse via a UK proxy.– PontFeb 16, 2019 at 8:40
Ordnance Survey Maps can be download to a mobile device for free using Avenza PDF Maps. The maps can be viewed without an internet or cellular connection after download. Avenza allows you to store up to 5 maps for free so you can either download them and swap them out or pay for a professional version of the app. https://www.avenzamaps.com/maps/search.html?query=&location_mode=map_input&location=&sort=relevance&price_max=1&page=0&debug=¤t_map_id=&location_box=55.0150538046944%2C-1.5198503796983687%2C54.02605303562811%2C-2.7654253308702437&vendor_ids=&category_ids=&merge_mode=v4&debug_ids=
