Dear HOT, a few months ago, we launched a Maps API to simplify access
to our imagery (in partnership with Mapbox). In response to Hurricane
Patricia, we are opening access to pre-event Mexico imagery. We have
built 50cm countrywide mosaics for the world, and we are delighted to
provide imagery over the impact area of Mexico in hopes of improving
OpenStreetMap and aiding in Humanitarian efforts. This data is
licensed for OpenStreetMap tracing and usage. Let's rally for Mexico!!
To use this imagery for tracing within OpenStreetMap, you can load
http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=15/20.6075/-105.2316 and then
add the |digitalglobe.vivid-latam-caribbean| map ID as a custom
background. (or add to an existing HOT task)
Please use this URL:
|https://api.mapbox.com/v4/digitalglobe.vivid-latam-caribbean/{z}/{x}/{y}.png?access_token
<https://api.mapbox.com/v4/digitalglobe.vivid-latam-caribbean/%7Bz%7D/%7Bx%7D/%7By%7D.png?access_token=INSERTYOURACCESSTOKENHERE>=|pk.eyJ1IjoiZGlnaXRhbGdsb2JlIiwiYSI6ImNpZzRqYng4OTJ1NWd0emt2b3Q2dWhwNXQifQ.8ohSIF9elaL6Z6Cx69Joxg
As the storm moves out, our satellites are ready to collect post event
imagery, which we will also make available. Other resources and info
from DG:
When making imagery available, I strongly recommend adding it to the
imagery indexes for the editors, which are at
https://github.com/osmlab/editor-imagery-index and
https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Maps. This will ensure that the
imagery is available to all mappers.
