[OSM-talk-be] WMS (aerial) imagery covering Belgium, now conveniently packaged for adding it to JOSM

[Ben Abelshausen]

Hi,

@sander: nice one to email Mapbox to update their imagery! :-)

On the GRB:

Every datasource lies even when of the highest possible quality. For
example, the definition of a building may differ in some places. Think
about a building with an underground parking place for example?

It's great that we can use this as a source and this will improve OSM in a
lot of places in the future. We will just have to treat it like any other
source. IMHO almost always surveys or local knowledge is better and this
will be or always should stay our strength.

When looking at our own house I would add more detail, as I did in OSM,
compared to GRB but this is only possible when you know the location.

Thanks @ Jan Laporte for the detailed information here!

Met vriendelijke groeten,
Best regards,

Ben Abelshausen
