The Symphony Bluelight Gazetteer - Industry-leading solution for complete management of your corporate gazetteer data
The Public Sector Mapping Agreement (PSMA) entitles the Fire & Rescue
Services, the Police Forces and Ambulance Services of England and Wales to take advantage
of the data from the NLPG/NAG. This collection of over 32 million addressable
and non-addressable records is the most complete and accurate dataset
available, being updated daily by over 350 local authorities.
Fundamental to the Symphony Bluelight
Enterprise corporate gazetteer solution, known simply as the Bluelight Gazetteer, is its ability to receive NLPG/NAG
Change Only Updates (COUs) direct
from the National Hub, which allows for
your organisation’s address data to stay
permanently up to date.
These COUs can be easily exported from
Symphony Bluelight Enterprise in a DTF
format, which can then be imported into
your front line and back office systems to maintain
consistency across your organisation.
Additionally, it contains a powerful search
facility for easy access to your data, which
includes the ability to search metadata.

Through the Bluelight Gazetteer
you will gain access to significantly
more than just the postal address and
will quickly and easily have access
to a vast amount of additional NLPG/NAG
data such as property classification,
geographic coordinates and a
property’s sub-divisions.
The Bluelight Gazetteer uses an
embedded GIS and a fast, customisable
user interface. It allows for the easy
identification of your data via the map
pane with street and property types
displayed with different icons and/or
different colours.
