[Talk-ca] Surrey 2012 imagery

[Paul Norman]

I'm getting it from the City of Surrey.

 

If you get imagery under a compatible license I could look at hosting it.
City GIS departments generally have imagery but they may be reluctant or
unable to release it. Surrey releases their data and imagery under the PDDL
<http://opendatacommons.org/licenses/pddl/summary/> .

 

One potential source is Orbview-3.
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Orbview-3 has some information. I had a
quick look but all I could find was a bit of imagery south of Sudbury from
June 2006 with 40% cloud cover.

Paul, I'm just curious, but how are you getting this new imagery?  Is there
a place where new Ontario imagery can be found?  Only reason I'm asking is
because of 4 expressway projects that the info is needed for in Ontario (QEW
rebuild in St. Catharines where all the exits got changed; ON-400 extension
around Parry Sound;  ON-69 South of Sudbury; and ON-11 between Emsdale and
South River).  Bing for those areas is either out-of-date, or there is no
good imagery at all to use.
