<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">After some experimentation and consultation with the HIU, we’ve determined that the second Lira image is a much better go-to source of imagery for tracing, as the satellite used returned much higher resolution imagery. This despite the
real problem of cloud cover in the image. We’ve switched that to the default image for future tracing. Hope this helps everyone with tracing going forward.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">You’re of course still more than welcome to use the original image, which you can find under the “Workflow” tab.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Additionally, thank you all so much for the tracing work so far! Our Africa team’s jaws dropped when they saw the maps yesterday. Gorgeous.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cheers,<o:p></o:p></p>
