Jean-Guilhem Thanks for your comments. Our group has defined the urban area of Bom Jardim as our priority. Unfortunately the post-disaster SPOT imagery does not cover such area. In my humble opinion, we could carry out a joint venture in order to map an area. No matter which platform the mappers use (either OSM, GMM or another one). The result would be available to users in a transparent way allowing for interoperability. This could be the best outcome of collaborative and cooperative mapping. Arlete
