The NextView won't be available for your area. It was added as an option to the TM as part of the "Camp Roberts" exercise with the US gov for mapping refugee camps in southern Ethiopia and Eastern Kenya and now (I think) with the American Red Cross project to map two cities in Northern Uganda.<br>
<br>
That imagery is always sourced separately (I've understood), which is why there's the special license that one must accept to get to the imagery.<br>

Subject: Re: [HOT] using HOT resources for a DRR project<br>
<br>
Dear everyone,<br>
<br>
I created a job for one of our mapping sites [0]. Please review if<br>
the instructions are simple enough. I noticed that when creating a<br>
job there is an option to use the NextView imagery, is it possible to<br>
use it in this case? How do I know that the nextview imagery has<br>
better coverega than what is available in Bing?<br>
