Hi Nicolas

loading the imagery in JOSM works fine from Central Europa (I tried google
hires imagery).

Use this URL http://hyperquad.telascience.org/cgi-bin/haiti3? as *Service
URL* in the JOSM preferences dialog, load the available layers (which will
display a tree of layers in JOSM) and select a layer.

Regards
Karl
