Re: [HOT] #777 Hi-res imagery for Cameroon (was Mapping Northern Nigeria ?)

2015-01-15 Thread Blake Girardot

Hi,

I was just about to send an email to the imagery coordination team and 
see if I can find out the status of this imagery.


Jorieke is heading into the field so she is going to have limited time 
and access to help with this.


But I will for sure report back what I find out.

Cheers,
Blake

I recently contributed to HOT #777 (East Cameroon - Polio Outbreak and

because there was no hi-res imagery available.
If it is true that there is hi-res imagery for the whole of Cameroon,
could it be made available for the area covered by #777 please?

Thanks

Hi Blake, Ok, second coffee fixed it. The imagery is available on the Map
Box Layer. You threw me with he inquiry to Hiu, this has nothing to so with
the US Sate Department.

MapBox have made whatever Imagery they have available for Cameroon to map

**Imagery Details**

High resolution imagery is available on the Mapbox Satellite layer sourced
from **DigitalGlobe’s WorldView-2**.

With the attribution to be as folows

#hotosm-task-777, East Cameroon, source=DigitalGlobe/Mapbox

There was never any TMS layer, only what is available under the MapBox
layer. Digitel Globe occasionally make their imagery available via the
mapbox layer and then allow a license to use it for mapping on a case by
cse basis.

Unfortunately, what is there is there.

What is the specific need at the moment??

2015-01-15 Thread Mark Cupitt
Hi Kevin, many thanks for responding. A big thanks for tasking for more
imagery as well ..

So .. I guess to answer what I understand to be the question, all available
HiRes imagery is published already on the MapBox Layer and has a license to
trace for OSM, in Cameroon, provided that an attribution similar to the one
below is made

#hotosm-task-777, East Cameroon, source=DigitalGlobe/Mapbox

(change the task details, of course)

I am certain Kevin will advise when updated imagery becomes available at
some point in the future.

Cheers

Mark

Hi,

I was just about to send an email to the imagery coordination team and see if I
