Hello Anthony,<br><br>I successfully added the Imagery plugin and it seems to work (I can see Imagery item on the main menu) But, I may be missing a step here... I could not see the Bing Sat option from the Imagery menu items on the main menu. All I can see are the Landsat / Landsat (mirror) / Yahoo Sat / Rectified Image / Blank Layer. How to I "add" Bing to the options?<br>
<br>thanks<br>ed<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Dec 4, 2010 at 7:56 PM, Anthony G.

Hi Noli,<br>
<br>
You may want to fire up a bit your josm using this little tweak<br>
> java -Xmx512m -jar josm-latest.jar<br>
<br>
I installed the "imagery" plugin instead, and its working great you may<br>
give it a try (a josm restart is necessary after installing a new<br>
plugin).<br>
<br>
After that, just simply download map from osm (3rd from left on the menu<br>
icons), box your area of interest (not so large otherwise you get an<br>
error). By default it will download only osm data but i suggest you<br>
tick the "raw gps data" to pull the gps data from the db as well. After<br>
both were download, click "Imagery" from the main menu then choose Bing<br>
Sat. Now you're good to go :)<br>
