 Hi all, if you need it, I have a Geoserver Instance not doing much at the
 moment that could be used. geoserver loves geoTiffs. It is trivial to set
 it up. Just a matter of dropping the Geotiff into a directory, configuring
 a layer and its ready to go.

 Its a 2TB 32Gb Ram Ubuntu Trusty Server with lots of bandwidth available.



This sounds good to me. In the mean time I have a TileStasch server set up
for testing/learning.

It sounds like the next step is just get one sample Skybox for Good GeoTiff
file for deloyment Mark.

There was a blog post that said downloads were offered in MBTile format as
well. I have no idea which would be easier to work with.

Can we get any random Skybox for Good GeoTiff to get started with?

Cheers,
Blake

 Sign me up to help get the map tile server set up and running. I am
 glad to get it set up and admin it to get started while workflow
 shakes out.

 Disclaimer: I have no idea how to do either of the above, but I learn
 fast.

 Cheers,

  Hey
 
  A few notes from talking this through with Josh
 
  * Requests for SkyBox imagery would go through the usual HOT imagery
  coordination process
  http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/HOT_activation#Imagery_Coordination
  * Use of SkyBox imagery for HOT activations would be coordinated through
  tasking manager projects.
  * The listing of all SkyBox for good requests is at
 
 https://mapsengine.google.com/00979750194450688595-08887688179650036554-4/mapview/?authuser=0
 .
  We'd go through the coordination processes above, if a HOT activation
 wanted
  to use existing imagery.
  * At the moment, there is no tile service. HOT would need to set up
 tiles
  from a downloaded GeoTIFF.
 
  Hope that clears things up.
 
  Btw, would be good to simply set up a test with one of the SkyBox for
 good
  GeoTIFFs, to see how it compares with Bing georeferencing and
 resolution.
 
  Best
  Mikel
