Strategi® feature codes by category

This is a list of all the valid feature codes used within Strategi, arranged by category. Please note that the list of attributes is different in several cases from the list of attributes published by Ordnance Survey in their Strategi User Guide. The list here is based on our experience of using the data. Note that all features listed below have the DE attribute, which details when the feature was last amended.

This list of feature codes can also be viewed in feature code order within the Strategi Guidance Notes.
