Ordnance Survey – OS Data Hub

From capturing leads to revealing the revenue value of marketing

Ordnance Survey (OS), Great Britain’s mapping agency, developed a national geospatial data platform to provide access to authoritative mapping and geographic datasets. It needed to drive customers, partners and developers to the new Data Hub efficiently.

They needed:

  • public sector and government customers to learn about and visit the new online Data Hub
  • to model revenue uplift and understand their return on ad spend

We combined internal data, in-field testing & advanced maths to build results & insights, delivering:

  • a digital advertising awareness campaign
  • customer journey mapping
  • revenue modelling

Our impact

  • Doubled the uplift in licence numbers
  • Demonstrated additional revenue generated
  • Surfaced the traffic split, revenue and return on advertising (ROAS)
  • Revealed the unit cost for marketing

The unit cost for marketing, became a ‘lingua franca’ between marketing, sales and finance teams at OS, guiding marketing strategy & investment allocations.
