Wondering whether you have reached out to any hobbyist or academic group which might be able to provide or provide funds for a weather-balloon based imaging platform. In the absence of donated commercial satellite imaging, there are a significant number of hobbyist solutions for local aerial imaging using digital camera technology coupled with (unknown $$$) high altitude balloon technology. My thinking is that this might be the best solution for most rural areas on the planet, not just Haiti. --OSM user ceyockey _______________________________________________ HOT mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
