[HOT] pre-earthquake imagery for Haiti

[Séverin MENARD]

Dear Sabrina,

TelaScience gathered all the OSM-compatible imagery for Haiti, pre and post
Earthquake.
Here is the URL for the WMS:
http://hyperquad.telascience.org/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/bigdata/haiti3/haiti3.map&request=WMS&version=1.1.1&

If you want to use them in JOSM or see the spatial extent of each of them:

   - Start JOSM
   - Edit Menu, Preferences
   - On the left side, go down to the WMS/TMS green icon and click on it
   - Click on the + icon to add a new imagery
   - in the Service URL area erase the existing text and copy/paste the URL

http://hyperquad.telascience.org/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/bigdata/haiti3/haiti3.map&request=WMS&version=1.1.1&

   - click on the Get Layers button
   - after a few seconds all the hosted imagery will appear in a list.
   Click one that seems interesting and click on the Show bounds button to see
   its cover
   - if one suits you, keep it selected and add its full name in the Menu
   name on top instead of "Unnamed ImageryLayer"
   - Click on OK to validate your choice then again on OK to save your
   preferences changes
   - now you have this new imagery available in the Imagery Menu. Repeat
   the process for every imagery you are interested in

Sincerely,

Severin
