# SRC: Use land and property data in England and Wales

* **From 1 July 2020, INSPIRE spatial polygon datasets which map more than 23 million title extents across England, Wales and Scotland have been available on the** [**Use land and property data service**](https://use-land-property-data.service.gov.uk/#ips) **and** [**Registers of Scotland’s website**](https://ros.locationcentre.co.uk/inspire/)**.** The data shows land ownership boundaries for England, Wales and Scotland.
*  **Until then, this data has been closed and couldn't be reproduced publicly** - the public wasn't able to see maps of land boundaries across the UK, nor could journalists easily use it to investigate.
* **Most of the data is free to access** but you may need to create an account and sign a licence agreement first.
* **You can check out and download the datasets here:** [**https://use-land-property-data.service.gov.uk/#ips**](https://use-land-property-data.service.gov.uk/#ips)
