Data requirements

Hi all,

As some of you may know, The GeoInformation Group was recently acquired by Verisk Analytics, a leading data analytics provider serving customers in insurance, natural resources, and financial services.
The official announcement can be found on our website here:http://www.verisk.com/press-releases/2016/november/verisk-analytics-inc-acquires-the-geoinformation-group.html.

As a result we have been reviewing the data we collect and asking our customers what information they would be interested in, in the future.
I therefore thought I'd open this up to this forum to ask for suggestions for data that is not currently or readily available.
For example, some people have mentioned enhancing our UKBuildings and/or UKMap databases to include street furniture, building BLPUs (Basic Land and Property Unit), street BLPUs, listed buildings, number of bedrooms/bathrooms/reception rooms and flood risk score.

Many thanks,

Beverley Tyrrell
