  The ISIS Synchrotron accelerates a high intensity proton beam from 70 to 800 MeV at 50 Hz. Recent hardware upgrades to the diagnostics, instrumentation and computing have allowed turn by turn transverse position measurements to be made. A special low intensity beam can also be injected for detailed diagnostic measurements. The analysis of such data at many points around the ring has allowed the extraction of lattice parameters. This information will have significant application for improved beam control. The methods of analysis as well as some applications for setting up and optimising the machine are described in this paper. Future plans and relevance for high intensity performance is also given.
