Hi all,
The Bing imagery is great for Cebu.
I just had the possibility to make some aerial pictures of Cebu myself during a
helicopter tour.
The resolution is slightly higher than the one of Bing. The coverage is much
smaller tough ^_^
And its quite some work to rectify the pictures.
I tried p
Hi all,
Just a quick note on the imagery.
I still have problems stitching them with Hugin.
More details here : http://osm.totor.ph/
I was able to align part of the pictures further, using
QGIS. Still not good enough in my opinion, but I won't have time to continue
the experiment for the moment.
Cool!
I was about to ask you about your helicopter tours because of your
recent edits, but Bing distracted me. Hehehe.
Maybe you need a better camera set-up so you can get more vertical shots?

Yes, a vertical setup would be better, but I was just invited, so I took the
pictures through the side window by hand.
I asked the pilot for the price, but at around 3PHP for a short tour
(5000PHP per person, but the helicopter has to be full...) I'm not sure I'll
need a better setup ^_^

Very cool experiment! Would you like this added to the philippine
images we have in the osm dev server (spot and quickbirds)? Maybe we
can request gravitystorm to include this imagery. Or you can serve
them yourself via tms.

That could be great to add them to gravitystorm.
But wait for the final ones. The stitched images I have now are not correctly
aligned yet.
I hope that will be better after replacing the automatic control points with
manual ones. (Now automatic points on tall building distort the ground level,

It seems to be available now if you're using the testing version of JOSM. Are
we allowed to use it yet, or is there more legal wrangling to g
According to the wiki, not yet:

But according to "the people who knows", it's as good as approved.
Let's just wait for the legal bleh.

Great job Totor! Your effort to document the process is most
commendable. This will be very useful as I have my own plans of
collecting my DIY imagery in the future.
One thing I noticed is that your TMS aligned better with Google
imagery than that of Bing

Awesome work, would be great if you can write up a blog post or
something like a step by step guide so newbies on the internet can do
the same with aerial imagery.

This is brilliant, for sure, but it leads me to wonder about the idea of
mapping using an automatic camera suspended (and therefore vertical) from a
balloon or small aeroplane. So no need to rectify.
I've read about some people doing this in France etc, but maybe this is a
viable alternative t
