2. Basis of preparation 
 
The condensed consolidated interim financial information for the six months
ended 31 July 2016, has been prepared in accordance with the accounting
policies that are expected to be adopted in the Group's full financial
statements for the year ended 31 January 2017 and are not expected to be
significantly different to those set out in the Group's audited financial
statements for the year ended 31 January 2016. 
 
The financial information for the half years ended 31 July 2016 and 31 July
2015 is neither audited nor reviewed and does not constitute statutory
financial statements within the meaning of section 434(3) of the Companies Act
2006 for 1Spatial plc or for any of the entities comprising the 1Spatial
Group.  Statutory financial statements for the preceding financial year ended
31 January 2016 were filed with the Registrar and included an unqualified
auditors' report. 
 
After making enquiries, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the
Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational
existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the
going concern basis in preparing the half-yearly condensed consolidated
financial statements. 
 
3. Taxation 
 
The tax expense on the result for the six months ended 31 July 2016 is based
on the estimated tax rates in the jurisdictions in which the Group operates,
for the year ending 31 January 2017. 
 
4. (Loss)/Earnings per share

8. Business combinations 
 
On 3 February 2015 the Group entered into a share purchase agreement to
acquire 47% of US distributor Laser Scan Inc. ("LSI"), the US-based provider
of spatial data solutions for cash consideration of US$2.25m (£1.5m). 
 
On 29 February 2016, the Group exercised its call option to acquire a further
26% of LSI for US$1.3m (£0.9m), payable in cash, taking the Group's total
holding in LSI to 73%.  LSI was subsequently renamed 1Spatial Inc.  1Spatial
Inc. is the sole distributor of 1Spatial geospatial products and solutions
across the Americas, which includes significant contracts with the US Census
Bureau.  The acquisition strengthens 1Spatial's position within the US market,
which is a significant opportunity for the Group and will be a key area focus
for this financial year. 
 
As part of the agreement signed on 3 February 2015, the Group has the right to
acquire the remaining 27% of 1Spatial Inc. from 1 February 2017.
