Hello Simon,

OK - thanks - just thought I'd ask just in case something existed but was obscure and hard to find.

Thanks,
Nick

The very short answer, if you are referring to a global "high resolution" imagery mosaic, is "no".

Hi,

Just wondering if there are any 'XYZ tile format' freely available aerial imagery tileservers, other than low-resolution ones such as Landsat.

Have checked https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Aerial_imagery and it lists a few, but I'm not sure any are freely available at high resolution and with global coverage. Bing, I think, is only licensed for use in OSM editors and not general OSM applications.

I'd like to use it for my own (FOSS) web-based application to overlay aerial imagery and OSM data on a 3D terrain.

Thanks,
Nick
