Hello everybody, I have finally investigated all of the new Bing imagery (at least I hope I did) that were added since September 2013. There are plenty of new areas added or updated:
* Pangasinan is now almost 100% covered. There's new imagery that now covers some of the missing strips in western Pangasinan * Iba, Zambales * Baler, Aurora * Parts of northern Oriental Mindoro between Puerto Galera and Calapan * Daet, Camarines Norte * Sorsogon, Sorsogon * the Calamian Group of Islands is now around 99.5% covered (basically, only outlying islands are not yet covered) * a few other parts of Palawan are now covered including the southern tip of mainland Palawan. Balabac Island is still not yet covered * northern Negros is now pretty much covered. Newly covered areas include Bago City, Himamaylan, Cadiz City, San Carlos City, Canlaon City, Guihulngan. The only major uncovered area is Victorias City * eastern and northern Bohol: Jetafe, Alicia, Candijay, Guindulman, Mabini, etc. * eastern half of Dapupiri Island, Northern Samar * western half of Misamis Occidental * portions of northern Misamis Oriental between Cagayan de Oro and Gingoog City * a large swath of eastern Agusan del Sur * eastern Jolo Island Unfortunately, Bing has removed some of the earliest Bing imagery (Batch 0 and Batch 1). The major affected areas are: * NCR/Laguna/Cavite: southern Muntinlupa, western San Pedro, GMA, western Carmona, northeastern Silang * NCR/Bulacan: Northern Caloocan, San Jose del Monte City, Norzagaray, Angat * Cotabato: area around Midsayap (but strangely, the imagery is still visible at Zoom 18 and above) Please see the updated Imagery Coverage Map here (which also includes some Mapbox satellite imagery outlines drawn by Maning): http://osmph.github.io/Imagery_Coverage_Map/ Note that I have simplified the Bing outlines for the Imagery Coverage Map. There's now only 1 layer for all Bing imagery (no more batches) and another layer showing just the newly added/updated imagery. There's also 2 layers showing which areas previously had Bing imagery but were removed since September 2013. The "maybe" are those imagery that can still be seen at Zoom 18 above. I you spot any new imagery that I have missed, please feel free to reply to this thread! :-) On Thu, Sep 4, 2014 at 5:29 PM, maning sambale <emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com> wrote: > Not sure if these are new imagery as well, but, I saw that parts of > Negros Island right at the edges where Haiyan mapping was done now > have hires imagery. > Ie: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/10.9552/123.3080 > > On Fri, Aug 22, 2014 at 6:58 AM, Eugene Alvin Villar <sea...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > When I checked yesterday, the only new imagery I saw was covering a part > of > > Sorsogon City.
