Hi All

We are in the process of looking at collecting data on the humanitarian
situation in Aleppo. Part of this work would involve the use of OSM in
country. The challenge is that the available basemap on OSM for Aleppo is
quite poor. Could any one provide a recommendation for how we might obtain
the following:

1. High quality tiled imagery (preferably up-to-date given building
destruction) with licenses that permit tracing into OSM
2. Level 5 Administrative boundaries within Aleppo city limits
3. POIs (the more the better provided they are reasonably up to date)
4. Street names

Additionally, are there any Crisis Mappers within the community who might
have an intimate understanding of Aleppo city sufficient to support
additional remote basemap improvements onto OSM?

Matt
