So far Images from Drone adventure are coming with opensource data license.

So far as well, we are using all those images in OSM in Haiti.

for the source: we put  @IOM / DroneAdventure   et now @COSMHA as OSM in 
haiti are flying alone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oou32o-jR0M


So now it just a question to check with MapBox if the link to use in 
JOSM or other is working. (In haiti we put the link by default , when 
you zoom over haiti the link appear in the toolbar /Imagery)


Don't forget also that you can request also the elevation model if 
needed, check with medair or Drone Adventures for that.



And we just finish some test with Pix4D and Cern 
http://home.web.cern.ch/ to check the accuracy ( X , Y , Z ) case study 
soon.


But without GCP , UAV image with Pix4d is coming with horizontal 
accuracy less than 2 meters  for what I have seen at CERN (standard 
deviation method),


All the best FredM

Is this layer available for tracing?

Dear team,

A team from Drone Adventure (http://www.droneadventures.org/) came to
Philippines to work alongside our team and take aerial pictures from
affected area where we work.

You can have a look at the pictures at:

On a related note, I was wondering about the feasibility of starting a 
crowd-funded venture to start up a drone operation here, with the object of 
putting rural areas of the Philippines on the map. I hadn't really thought 
through the details, but perhaps investors over a certain threshold - say USD 
1000 for example - could get priority mapping of their chosen area. Certain 
towns might need the data, or maybe in areas where there are high 
concentrations of hotels and tourists, the tourist industry might club together 
to get a decent map of the area. eg. Malapascua Island.

The initial funding would pay for the drone purchase, flights to the targeted 
areas and accommodation. After that, it could be spun off as a business.

Just an idle fantasy right now. Anyone have any thoughts about this?

Re: [talk-ph] Fwd: MEDAIR : Philipines Imagery

Hi Jim,

I have been trying to convince some people to tip in to get 2 units plus 1
Super LapTops for disaster response (Preferably 2 sets)

The idea is to base these in key locations, Luzon and Visayas) where they
can be used to respond quickly to any crisis, (Flooding, Land Slide, etc),
providing quick, meaningful information to decision makers

They would be deployed using Vehicles or possibly a Bike followed by a
Vehicle, with 2 units of drone being able to cover a lot more area and
deliver very useful data very quickly, as well as having a backup in case
one goes AOG

The challenges are:

1. Price: $20K US per drone (this can probably be negiotated down), $US5K
for a super Laptop, $US4K for Solar Charging Systems, batteries to power
the whole setup. Assuming no Grid Power Available which is likely. That is
$29K per setup
2. Getting the processed imagery out to people who can use it. It is
unlikely that there will be internet, so it will have to be processed and
taken somewhere where it can be uploaded
3. Staffing. Would need a minimum of two people to run this per deployment,
with probably one central office person to handle final processing of
imagery, upload to WMS, etc, plus a Coordinator (possibly the same person
as Central Office)
4. Staff Availability. - Having staff sitting around and waiting is not
feasible financially.
5. Legality - It is actually illegal to take aerial photos in the
Philippines without CAAP and Military J3 Clearances, which are very
specific to each particular operation/flight. The process would probably
drown in Red Tape. The only option would be to get a specific exemption for
relief operations, but even the FAA is having a difficult time coming to
grips with Drones running around unfettered. I honestly do not hold any
hope that it would be easy to obtain an unrestricted operational ability.
FYI, General Aviation aircraft are legally allowed to operate at 500 ft and
above over non built up areas, and 1000 ft and above over built up areas,
and this would be the sticking point for the CAAP. There is a clear
possibility of conflict with Helicopters, etc.
6. Control - someone in Government would want to control the operation,
this could be good or bad, depending on how it was setup and who had the
priority call on deployments.

I came up with the same idea you did which was to use the equipment to map
different areas as a way to train volunteers, build skills and improve the
deployment scenarios and deliverable processing and distribution as well as
funding some of the operational costs.

I did get a lot of What a Good Idea but so far, no one has offered to
fund the first two units and setup. The negatives scare folks off from
putting that much money up front

This type of setup would be perfect for this country in times of crisis. I
hope it could be done, it would save a lot of lives

Hi Michael, when I was in Panay on our response, we talked about this. we
felt that the General on the scene would have had final say.

You are right, later on down the track, anything embarrassing would be
dimly viewed and could leave you wide open on any number of possibilities.
General Who said it was ok

 In the case with the FAA, they actually dont have coverage if the height

 inter-department problems.



 You actually need a licence in Australia..:)

 So its a Uphill battle, If its for a disaster area, there are two things
 to remember the government do not want bad publicity so they will let it
 happen a little, but if the photos, put the government in a bad light then
 they will really throw the book at you.



 Being an Expat is a bigger Risk because then they could get you on spying,
 I was in the UAE when a guy using GPS was arrested and thrown in jail for
 marking Phone antenna Locations in Russia.. I quickly hid what I was doing,
 so as to not risk the questions being asked..

Die van het Dijleland zijn allemaal lussen, gemarkeerd met gekleurde pijlen.
http://www.toerismevlaamsbrabant.be/fietsen/fietsproducten/mountainbikenetwerk-dijleland/index.jsp
De lussen delen hier en daar wel een segment of wegkruising, zodat je
onderweg van de ene lus naar de andere kan hoppen. Hierdoor kan je ze
ook aan mekaar schakelen en zo grotere afstanden afleggen, maar er is
geen knooppunten systeem zoals bij de wandel- en fietsroutes.

Iedere lus is meestal op het grondgebied van 1 of 2 gemeenten, zodat lcn
zeker het meest toepasselijk is.

De lussen staan op zich zelf, maar worden altijd wel gepland om
verbinding te kunnen vormen met andere lussen.
Wanneer voldoende lussen zullen aanwezig zijn om de hele provincie te
bedekken en verbinden, ontstaat er van zelf een netwerk, dat dan
eventueel tot knooppuntennetwerk zou kunnen worden omgevormd. Een en
ander hangt af van de plannen van Bloso (en de gemeentebesturen).
