towns that need work... is there impact of the earthquake? are maps needed?


Landsat

Use of Landsat images is not really effective, but not absolutely bad:

  • waterways are visible, so lakes and water basins;
  • major roads are already present; where a road cross a waterway, there is a bridge;
  • landuse could be derived too (residential and woodland are well visible).

IMHO Landsat is not too bad, waiting for something better.

WMS server with current high-res data.

wms.openstreetmap.de contains links for Potlatch and JOSM to current GeoEye imagery. --Deelkar (talk) 16:01, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
