Hi Bruno,

Welcome to OSM !!!  I have made new JOSM presets for Urbis as described
below.

When I am mapping, I meet many elements that were previously mapped with
a 2-5-10m+ precision and I remap them with a 20 cm precision using the
SPW servers.  The best advices I can give to map precisely are:

  * use JOSM, even if it seems harder to start with, it's much rewarding
    in the long term; suboptimal mapping is usually done with other editors
  * use digitalized maps: aerial photographs are shot from an angle:
    they are rectified horizontally but not vertically: the walls or
    other vertical features are slanted and the roofs are offset
    relatively to the ground; digitalized maps are the result of
    calculations that a human cannot do to put all that right.

Forget about that URL and what I have said before about using it.
I have made new presets that are prettier, faster, more simple, more
precise by supporting 3857 and without the pesky message.

Configure
	Imagery>Imagery preferences>refresh (whirling arrows)>select *BE
URBISfr*>Activate>OK
Imagery>Imagery preferences>refresh (whirling arrows)>select *BE

Activate
	Imagery>URBISfr or URBISnl and there should come your layer


Let me know if everything is right for you.

Happy mapping.

André.
