Re: Neue Bing Bilder veröffentlicht
Heute ist mir ein kleiner Flieger aufgefallen der in gewissem seitlichem Abstand hier lang ist (relativ tief).
Die Flughöhe beträgt bei den 30 cm Bilder 5000 m, ist also nicht allzu tief.
Übrigens gibt es eine neue Übersicht:

Stand 27. August

Re: Neue Bing Bilder veröffentlicht
@Harry
Nee, die kommt ja hier öfters mal vorbei wenn sie in Finthen startet.
War so eine Art Learjet 24/25/35. 3x gesehen selbe Richtung übern Tag verteilt.
@kellerma
5000m ? War deutlich tiefer, 1500m, schwer zu schätzen. Aber da fliegen die Flieger die in FFM landen hier sogar noch tiefer (ca. 3000m) als die "Orthoflieger". Dann war wohl mehr der Wunsch Vater des Gedanken. Glaube muss doch mal wieder mehr Wege per GPS statt Flächen per Luftbilder mappen. ![]()

Hello - new OSM member here, I am involved in Global Ortho project and can help with any questions. Am reading this through Google Translator so German or English will be OK. for example, flights in Mannheim initiated this past week. Cheers.

Thanks a lot!

Oh, please not.
Nuremberg is much more important than "Münsterland" (What's that?)

Flights for Nuremberg were completed Aug 18/19; generally there is ~3month lag until publishing to Bing (as you've probably already observed). so good news - it's on the way.

Is it possible to get a rough flight plan or maybe a updated map like this http://www.digitalglobe.com/downloads/c … ermany.pdf? At least which region was/will be taken in a week?

Re: Neue Bing Bilder veröffentlicht
Maybe you are also the person to ask: Why are "you" (bing) blurring military areas and google does not? (if you can't answer this question, it's also ok - but we (OSM Germany) were just wondering...)

That's a better question for BKG; that is something out of our control.

Wow, great. Thanks a lot....so don't need to cut the meadow tomorrow...you alread have the image. We never had a guy like you here so apologise if we are asking too many questions. I have another one (or two). Is there any plan to update the arial images in eastern and south east europe? And my second one, please don't misunderstand me, how did you find the way to this forum?

Great so Germany is mostly done, "only" missing the Alpes, Hamburg and North Rhine-Westfalia.
Flights for Nuremberg were completed Aug 18/19
Even greater. 19.August had over 35 degree celsius => no clouds ![]()

No plans as of right now, but conditions could change in the future. I found this forum by way of research; I am working on something that could be of benefit to OSM community and wanted to understand the current pain points and issues. I happened to stumble upon this. I am not affiliated with bing, nor would this research/project I am working on.

Re: Neue Bing Bilder veröffentlicht
2 more (technical) questions:
a) 15 cm - as planned for germany - has been abandoned, right?
b) when measuring the pixel width (in josm) I got nearly 40 cm. Do we really "loose" 10 cm through transformation process(es)?

Because there's snow? ![]()
If you look at the data sheet "snow free" is required (for usa).
Often it's cloudy and also the sun is deep => very long shadows.

Shadows, and green...There are only some small windows where you can get the best images for tracing. For Bing they probably want "colored" images with forests in green, etc. They are not making the images for us, we would like images with no shadow, no clouds and no green on trees ![]()

That's incorrect.
If you look at the datasheet "leaflet" is required for HVA regions.
