We present the results from the quantitative spectroscopic analysis of ~280 likely single O stars targeted by the IACOB and OWN surveys. This implies the largest sample of Galactic O-type stars analyzed homogeneously to date. We used the iacob-broad and iacob-gbat tools (see Simón-Díaz et al. 2011,2015) to obtain the complete set of spectroscopic parameters which can be determined from the optical spectrum of O-type stars: projected rotational velocity (v sin i), macroturbulence velocity (vmac), effective temperature (Teff), gravity (logg), wind-strength (logQ), helium abundance (YHe), microturbulence (ξt), and the exponent of the wind-law (β).
