Hello all
I'm wanting to obtain image files with which to start proceeding beyond
the spearfish files that are the default.
there is a new dataset available: OSGeo Edu dataset, North Carolina
http://www.grassbook.org/data_menu3rd.php
Specifically, I'm looking for images for the UK.
It's not easy to find free European data. What do you specifically look for?
Some pointers:

Thanks Markus
I'll follow those links to see what I can come up with. I am looking
particularly for images for SE London, but these do seem quite hard to
locate. I was under the impression the British Ordinance Survey office
had released their data to the public domain since we pay for it in our
taxes, but I could be wrong.
If anything else occurs to you or others on this list, please don't be
shy about letting me know.
Many thanks
Andy
