EVERTON STADIUM HAS BEEN OFFICIALLY PUT ON THE MAP! 🗺️📍

Surveyors from Ordnance Survey (OS), who are responsible for the National Geographic Database, have spent the past few years meticulously monitoring the stadium footprint, which sits on reclaimed land following the huge task of infilling Bramley Moore Dock.

As the site has developed, Britain’s national mapping service has been responsible for capturing it for the nation’s maps and the OS National Geographic Database - the digital master map of the nation - by flying over the site by plane and drone to build up a comprehensive picture of the new ground.

More recently, further data was captured by field surveyors on the ground to ensure the pitch, and final details, such as access points for the benefit of emergency services, have been locked in.

And on Monday, at the culmination of a morning spent at the stadium by BBC Breakfast TV, those crucial final elements were added to the OS surveying kit as the stadium’s name was finally added to the nation’s OS digital maps. Everton Stadium will also appear in the next edition of paper maps.
