[HOT] using HOT resources for a DRR project

[maning sambale]

Dear everyone,

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