[talk-au] SSSI National Bushfire Recovery Map-a-thon - Sunday 9th Feb

[Ewen Hill]

Sadly the Planet quality appears less than optimal. If I look at the town
of Cobargo where there were buildings lost just north east of the Narira
Creek Highway crossing, I can't tell.what has been destroyed, damaged or
otherwise. :  https://tasks.hotosm.org/project/7898?task=591

KI, South Australia has no Planet imagery whatsoever and Victoria area has
relatively few building losses or damage in that area and will be as boring
as batshit to map each square.

I have seen better Planet imagery so are we playing with the full deck
here? I think we really need to come up with a backup plan for this event
and quietly push SSSI towards that. We don't want people's first taste of
OSM to be a poor one.
