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.
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.
I can host it if you send it to me or you can just upload it here http://imageshack.us/
After the upload, it provides you a forum link which you can copy and post here
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…)
Brilliant - here is the updated status map: http://imageshack.us/a/img856/919/statusal.jpg
Green is acquired, Yellow is being flown, Red to be acquired in Sept/Oct - weather permitting.
Ich spreche besser Englisch, ich bin Kanadier, sondern studierte Germanistik in der Schule.
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?
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.
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)?
