FOR THE MAP SPECIFICATION AFFICIANADO
The documents below are line by line comparisons of ISOM, ISOM 2017, ISSOM and ISSprOM as at March 2021. They contain quite detailed tables that are the basis for the decisions in the ONSW guidance above. They are not necessary reading, although keen mappers might want to refer to them occasionally.
