Imagery

You must give credit to the image providers. This is required by the imagery owners and helps us to see if your mapping might be outdated.

See also Best Practices for more guidance.

Where available, the IOM Drone imagery, obtained by HOT and taken in late 2012, early 2013, is the most current imagery. Bing imagery, although slightly older, is much more comprehensive and available at a high resolution in most areas of the country.

Be sure to use the Imagery Offset DB before using any imagery in Haiti.

For a list of imagery sources used immediately following the 2010 earthquake, see: WikiProject Haiti/Imagery and data sources/Old
