Hi Andrew and thank you for your interest in OSM, as well as great, open
communication.

I have only mapped in Vietnam when visiting, but I long for returning
and mapping a bit more, as well as benefiting from our collective work.

From my visit, I recall that a major challenge was the rapid development
- new highways were built all over the place, buildings torn down and
built anew... One could only rely on ortophoto layers (and older GPS
traces) after visiting the place.

If there was a way to obtain recent - and preferably updated every now
and then - ortophoto for Vietnam, it could be of a great help.
