Our informative, elegant, and decorative mapping is already used by several licensees to produce products for research, local history and genealogy, jigsaw puzzles, wallpaper, floor coverings, etched glass panels, candles, place mats, coasters, mugs, framed prints, clocks, data for hand-held GPS devices and iPhone apps. If you already produce products on this list, don’t worry – none of our arrangements are exclusive. We recognise that everyone has their own markets and their own way of combining their design and our images to create something unique.
Currently, our mapping covers the whole of Great Britain and Ireland from several periods from the early 19th century at a variety of scales.

Digital Maps API
Cassini has also created a digital map API. This means we’ve made ordering and delivery of the map images quick and easy with our dedicated Map API web service (MAPI) which is available for most of our mapping series. MAPI acts as an interface between our system (which holds the maps) and yours (which creates the products for your customers). MAPI is available automatically, immediately and at all times.
Contact us at cassiniAPI@cassinimaps.com and tell us what products you’d like to use our mapping on. We’ll get back to you and agree the commercial and logistical details.
We’ll then send you the specifications for MAPI which your IT department will be able to activate with the minimum of effort. This will enable you to test the service and to download sample map images.
Finally, we’ll issue you with a licence which will confirm all the details of the products and the service.
It’s that simple. Within a couple of weeks you could be adding high-quality mapping to your own products and selling them to your customers. Cassini can help make this happen by licencing map data to hold on your systems or by supplying maps on demand via our Cassini Maps API..
